In the final episode of 2019, I want to share with you a poem that I wrote that’s straight out of the beginning of my book, Get Your Heart On. It’s about what might it look and feel like if we were to care about one another a little bit more.
In this episode, I’m so excited to share with you some of my personal favorite gift ideas that literally make a difference in the lives of others.
I did my best to feature from a variety of causes + organizations so hopefully, there’s something here that would be meaningful to you or someone you love. And they’re all programs I’ve personally supported over the years.
And don’t worry, you’re not behind, there’s no need to stress because most of them don’t require any shipping! YAY! If nothing else you can ALL TOTALLY do #1 and it doesn’t cost a thing.
My book – Get Your Heart On – The How-To Guide For People Who Want To Make A Difference by Gia Duke – That’s me!
Thank you so much for taking the time to check out the organizations and causes that stood out to you most. I know they’re so grateful for however you can support them an the work they are doing.
Much Love, :)gia
