Homeschool Geography E-book & Help a Family in Need!

November 16, 2009

Christmas is the season of giving. And it's especially the season of giving to those who have needs.

I found out today that my cousin and her family are going through a very trying time financially, and they're in need of help. My cousin is an amazing stay-at-home mom to her six children, ages 4 through 15, each of whom she homeschools. Sadly, her husband has been out of work for the last six months, and although he's been able to find odd jobs here and there, he has been unable to find employment, and unemployment benefits have run out. They've been doing everything they can to cut expenses, but they're still in dire financial need of money to pay for rent, electricity, gas, etc.

states_postal_abbI'm going to try to do as much as I can to help out my cousin's family, but I'm asking my readers if they can help out too. To help raise funds, I am offering my 29-page e-book, Learn the States and Postal Abbreviations, for a donation of any amount, and every penny of that donation will go directly to my cousin and her family to help cover some of their financial needs.

If you don't homeschool, or don't have a use for the ebook, please consider donating and giving the e-book to a friend or family member who can use it. It would make a great Christmas gift!

How to Donate and Get the E-Book

To make a donation, just click on the "give" button below. You'll be taken to PayPal where you can make your donation of any amount, and then you'll be immediately taken to a page where you can download Learn the States and Postal Abbreviations.

Thanks in advance for your generosity, and I hope that the e-book can be useful for you in your homeschool.

I went off of Amy's site at The Finer Things to donate. I am very happy to help out.

Thank you for reaching out to your cousin and coordinating something like this. We as Christians should reach out to each other to help in times of need. I gave because I would hope to receive the same kind of generosity should my family ever be in need. God bless them and you!!

Love how you're using what you have to share. I will pass this on to others.
And I was thinking we needed to learn the abbreviations anyway…. ;-)
