Christmas Is Coming!

It's still only just beginning fall, and I appreciate fall so incredibly much!! However, there is one Christmas thing I am already thinking about, planning for, and excited to be a part of!



My BIGGEST Christmas wish is for more orphans to be in families! This Friday, September 15, 2017, Reece's Rainbow will start sign ups for their Miracle of Adoption Christmas Campaign (MACC for short.) This is one of the most fun things to me about being an advocate. The goal is for 105 children on Reece's Rainbow to get an advocate who will make it their goal to raise $1,000 for the child they choose to advocate for during the months of November and December.... Seem overwhelming to you? Well think of these things:

1. ANY amount you raise for any child will be better than nothing.....enough to make me sign up....

2. Simply signing up and having the child be on the "Tree" helps to get their face out there and seen and improves the chances of a family finding them....

3. It's a step to take if you are thinking about signing up to warrior or advocate more, but have been nervous about doing it....
.
4. The Reece's Rainbow family is AMAZING!! We work as a team and when we see another struggling, we help push with them!

5....you can do it!!! lol.... I really doubted myself the last couple of times, and my babies I was advocating for had no problem making the $1,000 even though I felt like I was failing...again...RR people pull together!


Please consider signing up as a warrior! Go to reecesrainbow.org and look under the tab labeled "you can help" and then go down to hover on "the children" and select any of the categories to look through children to chose to advocate for...pick your top three!....then on Friday, or anytime between Sept 15 and Oct. 15, visit the Miracle Makers page to sign up!

Don't think that advocating for a child is really for you right now? That's okay...here are some ways you can help:

1. Donate to a child on the Christmas Tree between November 1st and December 31st! Any Donations $35 or higher will get you an ornament with the picture of the child you donated on one side, and this beautiful graphic on the other side:

2. Share the Campaign!

3. Share a specific child consistently during the campaign!

4. Consider sharing just 2 different children from the tree every day between November 1st and December 31st.


Thank you for any and all participation with the Christmas Campaign! It is a huge help, anything you do, and all the advocates and the children and the entire RR team appreciate it from the bottom of our hearts! Last year many children found their families during this campaign and I would LOVE to see that happen this year as well!
