Help Me Save Lives

Hi Friends, Family and Readers!

In just FIVE days I'll be participating in the AIDS Walk and 5K Run in Boston to help raise awareness and money. I would love your support on this issue.  Every little bit counts. 

Each dollar you donate helps AIDS Action Committee fight the HIV/AIDS epidemic. You'll be supporting their vital prevention efforts and direct services to people living with HIV.

Thank you for supporting me always, but especially in this challenge; we really can make a difference!

Donate Here

If saving lives isn't enough of an incentive, for every $10 you donate, you are entered to win a 16GB WiFi iPad 2! This is an ongoing promotion. The winner will be pulled on 6/21.

Thanks for your support!

Ladyblabla: Update Your Phone, Save Lives

Love this initiative from the folks at Mint Digital (such an awesome group, check them out if you haven't already). 

Ladyblabla is a smartphone comparison site created for a charity called mothers2mothers- an organization that trains local, HIV positive mothers, to be mentors for new mothers. The mentor moms use smartphones to help moms-to-be reduce the risk of HIV transmission to their babies by monitoring their clinic appointments, keeping up with their medications, accessing medical records and monitoring test results.  (read more on how it works here)

Every smartphone sold on Ladyblabla, pays for a mothers2mothers smartphone contract for a month.  I love this; shop for the best deals on smartphones and save lives while you're at it. I also love how empowering the mothers2mothers model is. So amazing and inspiring. 

Bravo Mint & m2m!
