If you won $10,000, but had to give it to a charity, which charity would you give it to?

That is very easy, The National Multiple Sclerosis Society. This is something that is VERY important to me. Want to learn more about MS or donate? You can do so here.

Also, Wed., May 26 is World MS Day. Learn more
here and sign up for a free newsletter to learn more about MS and what is going on in your area and how you can help.

One of my goals in the next couple years is to do the MS Bike to the Bay. More information is available
here if you too are interested in participating in this in the future.

Only For the Cause

So one day in the near future I will be the owner of a pair of orange crocs.

*sigh*

Now before croc enthusiasts unite against me during this post I will say that though I am not a fan of the crocs I think to each there own. I own some things such as clothes and shoes that others may cringe at the site of. So i don't judge, much.

So why did I cave to the crocs? Well this morning I got a text from my dad asking if I liked crocs, to which I replied - NO. But then he said that these are special crocs and that part of the sale will go to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society for research. UGH...he got me with the MS research card, rats! The MS society is something close to my families heart and therefore I, of course said yes. P.S. That means you too K....I gave mom and dad your size as I will not be alone in this! And I am sure these will be handy when I am cleaning or puttering around the house. Indoors of course, with the curtains drawn, at night. I kid, I kid. But I am willing to look past my dislike for these "shoes" and wear them with pride (while no one is looking) b/c they represent something important to me.

They also have the same thing for the American Diabetes Association. So if you like crocs or want to give to one of these agencies, click here. They are $29.99 a pair. And I guess people really are buying these and love the idea because we are currently on a waiting list! So that means more money is going to the MS Society! YAY

Crocs, Inc. will donate $2 to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society (National MS Society) for each purchase of the orange Beach style shoe pictured above. This shoe comes with a free National MS Society logo Jibbitz™ shoe charm to allow you to display your support for the National MS Society. Crocs, Inc. has committed to giving the National MS Society a minimum contribution of $25,000.
