Searching...

Not only will I be searching for a "Pot O' Gold" with my little Leprechaun in his St. Patty's Day hat...
...but I'm also searching for a new cause.

I've been thinking about a couple different options, but nothing has stuck yet.

I would love to do something music therapy related, since that is what I went to school for, but I'd love to do something local too. And I'd also like to do something charity related in the town I grew up, since that's where my roots are.

But I don't really know what options are out there.

And I want to be passionate about it. If I'm going to be trying to raise money for something, I want my heart to be in it.

So, I'm hoping this is where YOU come in. I'm looking for options and I'd love to hear what you've got. It could be a specific cause or charity you are passionate about, or an idea you have, etc.

Just leave a comment or drop me an email.

Thanks!

Hey Chelsea, here's a thought. The UNH hockey team has a project they call Operation Hat Trick. They collect money by selling ball caps with the UNH hockey logo on them. The money goes to soldiers with head injuries. It's pretty cool. Check out this link http://www.unh.edu/unhtoday/2012/01/operation-hat-trick

So here's what I'm thinking: what about a similar thing for children at a local cancer center? You could sell hats to raise money, but you could also donate hats to children (from infants up through whatever age) going through chemo. I can't think of a more fun way to deal with chemo-head than to put one of your beautiful and whimsical hats on top!

Whatever you choose to do will be wonderful -- I'm in awe of your talent, your creativity, and your super-generous heart! Love you!

eerrrmm. Operation Hat Trick donates the hats to the soldiers, as well as selling hats to raise money . . . I didn't say that well, but the link explains it better than I did. Ooops.
