Green Panda Treehouse Challenge Results

 Well, Friday is here and I feel good. The week’s challenge is over for now.

 I admit I did eat out this week when I forgot to pack my lunch. I still put all 5 days down anyways because it’s for a good cause. I estimated that I saved $20 by eating in for lunch. That $20 will go towards Money Management 101: Future Philanthropists in Training. I liked this teacher’s idea in particular and I feel it is money well spent. This program will help these students with personal finance and learn the value of being generous.

It’s not really much money, but I wanted to give something to a good cause.  I want to thank HC and Flexo for making me (and so many others) aware of this program. Thank you to everyone who donated time, money, and energey for this program. I’m glad so many decided to join this cause.

Next Monday is Blog Action Day, so expect a slightly different topic: the environment.

    Perhaps I could give some of the rest of the money that I earn through my AC writing this month. :-)

    It’ll be a lot more than I gave. :P But seriously, it’s a good cause and if you spread the word, you’re already helping. Thanks!

    Always happy to see a blogger write about giving. In the end it’s all about giving back.
