12 Ways of Giving: Online Auction

My friend Ashley and her husband are adopting a baby, and they have held a few fundraisers to help them fund the adoption and trip.  I had been praying for an opportunity to help them out, knowing I didn’t have much monetarily to give, when they announced a hand-made auction before the holidays. 

My mom and I had a little bag/apron/handmade stuff business a few years ago that didn’t really take off, so we had a lot of stuff still sitting around, so I convinced my mom to grab a few bags and a few bottles of wine to donate to the auction. 

I also donated some cupcakes made to order.  

If you want to help…  a friend of Ashley is putting on an online Norwex party! It lasts until Friday.  Here are the details: 

I (Mindy) am hosting an online Norwex party from today until Friday of this week to bless Nate and Ashley Rippke!
