Bloggers Give Back

My cousin-n-law and some friends are doing this awesome project called "Bloggers Give Back". Tomorrow, December 15, there will be an auction. There are so many wonderful people who have donated things such as jewlery, photo shoots, etc. Please go check it out and bid if you feel so inclined. If you are not interested in bidding you can also donate. Every little bit helps!

Here is the story of the family you will be helping...
Alan and Donna Gubler live in Ely Nevada and are both school teachers who were hoping to retire soon. This past weekend, after doing all their holiday shopping, they came home to their furnace not working. My uncle Allan attempted to fix it and thought the problem was solved. They were in their living room watching tv when their neighbor came running through their front door and said to get out now because their house was on fire. The fire spread so quickly that they lost everything. They didn't have time to get anything out. All they have now are the clothes they were wearing. The most awful part is that they have no insurance on their home. Their home and everything in it is a total loss. They will have to start from scratch with what little savings they have. They have such a deep hole in their hearts right now and are entirely devastated. I know this holiday season will be a very trying one for them.

Go HERE if you are interested!
