In light of several things, one of which being Heathers most current update, and also the post over at Boomama's I have been inspired (and hopefully) led by God to contribute in my own way. As most of you know, I think... I own my own Event Planning business. God gave me this, and with the help of Heather, I got started. Heather gave me the shove I needed to get started, and for a short while, was my business partner. If I can use what God has blessed me with to help her family out, than thats what I aim to do.
I know Boomama is working on putting together a paypal fund for Heather. Which is AWESOME! GO BOOMAMA! My thoughts, that have been circulating in my brain since yesterday or so, are that I want to either organize and coordinate some sort of Benefit Function, and have all proceeds go to Heather and her family, or find a willing Christian Artist (I have already contacted Casting Crowns, and am waiting for a reply) to participate in a Benefit Concert. I am working on researching the hows and whats need to happen to make this a reality. So, if you know anyone, or anything about this sort of thing, leave me a comment with your email, or email me! I know everything has been moving so fast for Heather and Mark, but I would love to see this happen sometime this summer as I know they will need continued financial support from as many avenues as possible to ease the burden on their family.
Thanks in advance!

I don't have any suggestions YET, but do offer my assistance in this. Just let me know -- I am also a Tupperware consultant -- not very active, but if you wanted to set up a fundraiser -- I will donate the entire profits to them, keeping nothing. This can be done online too. My email is colobleu@yahoo.com
What about an online auction with fellow bloggers donating items for raffle? It might not raise a ton -- but every penny counts!!
Big hugs to you... Thank you. Thats all I can say. I am overwhelmed right now with all of this- I never in my wildest dreams thougth I would be where i am.. and I never thought the internet would reach so vastly to help me...
Thank you :)
Heather
