Announcing My First Ever Giveaway

I am beyond excited to announce I am hosting my first ever giveaway on my blog!  I have been toying with this idea for some months, but I never could figure out just what I wanted to give away.  I think you will be pleased to know what I determined as the best possible giveaway item: a SpendYourself shirt.  

If you've read my blog for any amount of time, you know how much I love this company- and the people behind it.  SpendYourself is a non-profit apparel company that seeks to bring hope to the hopeless and empower those who are oppressed by highlighting different social justice projects around the world; a t-shirt is designed for the project and sales of the shirt go directly to the project.  Not only does the money support the project, but each and every time you wear a SpendYourself shirt, you are telling their untold story; you are giving a voice to the voiceless.

SpendYourself has released shirts benefiting several projects.  They have raised over $6,000 since their inception last year!

I am giving one reader a SpendYourself shirt of their choice so that they, too, can give a voice to the voiceless.  To enter the giveaway:

1. Become a follower (nothing wrong in shameless self-promotion, folks, but if you are already a follower and leave a comment, I will give you two entries).
2. Leave a comment telling me which shirt you'd choose and why.
3. Write about the giveaway on your blog and include a link back to this post (two entries for this one, but you've got to give me the permalink to your post).

The drawing will be Saturday, February 13th, so hop on over to SpendYourself and check them out!

This is probably my favorite giveaway ever!!! The only problem is that I now have to pick between the Resc/You and the Scarlet Hope....how could you give me such a hard decision?? It just isn't fair.........


....but, if I win, I think I will pick the Resc/You.

Hey, Jenny. I've been a subscriber to your blog for quite some time, so you can throw my name in the ring, too.

And if I were to win, I'd love the Haiti shirt. The reason is because we love a little boy there that we've sponsored through Compassion International for several years. Thanks!

I am a new follower.

I'd choose the Resc\You shirt...because people should have a choice in their lives, and an education will help them have that.
