Donation Good News

December 7, 2021 by MsWas 4 Comments

We heard from Bothari43 this week that her employer was offering giving dollars based on her volunteer hours with us. Because we’re a pending 501(c)(3), her volunteer work did qualify for an internal giving reward. But because we’re only pending, her donation had to go directly to the American Cancer Society. Thanks to our incredibly successful #GivingTuesday, we were able to match Bothari43’s donation with another $300 donation to the American Cancer Society this morning. With this donation, we remember AlabamaPink, and we also remember […]

Happy Holidays from…the IRS?

November 29, 2021 by MsWas 2 Comments

It’s been a hell of a year that seems to stretch on for an eternity, but how can it be that it’s suddenly almost December?? We made it past Thanksgiving, and it’s going to be time for Whamageddon and for more of those inflatable holiday decorations to start popping up on everyone’s lawns. (After seeing so many at Halloween, I’ll wager that we see dragons or dinosaurs taking over displays this year. You heard it here first.) A Big Thank You! I’ve said many times since […]

November Fundraising: The Best Thing That Happened to Me This Week Was You

November 20, 2020 by MsWas Leave a Comment

In this dumpster fire of a year, the most unexpected highlights in my 2020 turned out to be you, Cannonballers. Just this week, one of LanierHgts’s reviews garnered a comment from the author, Phyllis Fagell, saying that this review was the best thing that happened to her this week. And it’s all because LanierHgts read Middle School Matters. Every single time an author comments on a CBR review, it’s a thrill and really keeps me going; and so I thank you all from the bottom […]
