Let's do some good

Recently I came across two worthy causes that would certainly appreciate having a little extra kale thrown their way.

Haley is the adorable 6 year old niece of a friend of mine. Haley was diagnosed with a brain tumor at the age of 7 months and has gone through a lot. Please, please click on her page here and donate something to St. Baldrick's Foundation in her honor.

Longtime friend of the Compound Denise is running in her first 8k, the Shamrock Shuffle, and is raising money for the American Cancer Society.

These are good people, and you can donate as little as $5. I mean, come on, that's a cup of coffee, right? It's not often you get a chance to donate as little as $5 and can know it's going somewhere good.

p.s. in the Haley thing, not sure if it went as listed in her honor, but something went through to the general fund.
