12 Days of Christmas at 5 for 50

Tom Davis is at our house right now so we can edit his next book! We're having a great time, but hearing about what's happening in Swaziland makes me want to just pick up and move there.  5 for 50 is having a huge impact and the first place they're heading with tons of food is Ethiopia. You wouldn't believe what even ten dollars will do! Consider becoming a part of this, as a way to keep Christ in Christmas by sharing food with orphans around the world.  Hey celebrating Christmas with "pure Christianity" is about as good as it gets!

Check out his post to find out how you can get involved!

Every time we secure food for a child, we reduce the risk that they will sell their bodies and trade sex for food. Thank you. Also, 5 for 50 is funding 12 Christmas projects for orphans in 12 different countries. The first country we're helping is Ethiopia.

Buy a Pound of Coffee, Feed an Orphan for a Month!

What a great way to support an ethical, socially conscious company. Hey, as much as I love a good cup of Starbuck's here's an easy way to get great, fairly traded coffee and help kids in Africa.

I love it!

You'll see our good friend Tom Davis at the website with some of his friends in Swaziland. His relief organization, Children's Hopechest, is hosting Ty and I for our trip to Africa in January. So please, buy some coffee and feed an orphan. It's win-win!

Update: I logged on and ordered two pounds at $10.00 a pound. The shipping came to 6.52. Most fairly traded coffee runs 9 - 10.00 a pound, so even at 9.00, you've spent 8.52 to feed two orphans for a month AND the coffee comes to your door. Awesome.
