There are two new sites that I need to put you in touch with.
The first is www.halogifts.ca .
I've taken an excerpt from their About Us page:
"Imagine acts of kindness being performed for no reason. Imagine if that happened every single day. Imagine the outcome. Spirits would be lifted, joy would be gifted, and happiness would just be. We believe in people. We believe that if everyone performed one act of kindness for nothing in return every single day... that the world would be a better place. Let's start being kind before the illness strikes, before the natural disaster occurs, before the tragedy, before the crisis. Trust us, you will make a difference.
Halo is about paying homage to those people who have already understood this, who have practiced it, and who have no problem doing something kind without getting anything in return. Something for nothing."
They've got a really terrific clip on You Tube that sums up what they do!

Halo Gifts was started by six people (Penny Kane, Shanon Hilton, Shawn Gregson, Cheryl Oloriz, Phyllis Kane, Kellie Bent) who had a vision of rewarding everyday people for the kind stuff they do for others. Their mission is to celebrate random acts of kindness. They plan to raise enough money to make kind people's dreams come true. You can let them know about someone you feel deserves their attention and rewards or donate to their foundation.
Wow, another really BIG and wonderful thing happening in Alberta!
Damn, we're good.
Pass It On.
Second, there's no place like home. Welcome to www.glindagirls.com .
Remember Glinda, the good witch from the Wizard of Oz?
Well, here is creator/owner Kari Dunlop's definition of what a Glinda Girl is:
1. A female armed with moxie, chutzpah and a can-do attitude who pursues her passions to cultivate a career beyond her dreams.
2. She does what it takes, rises to the occasion, overcomes the odds and can often be heard crashing thru glass ceilings.
3. The words 'no' and 'impossible' do not exist in her dictionary.
4. She resides within all women waiting to be let loose and grab life by the horns and ultimately become an inspiration to others to follow in her footsteps.
Glinda Girls shopping website and warehouse is based out of Calgary. It is the brainchild of the down-to-earth and simply lovely Kari Dunlop. Kari set out to find a calling that filled her own consistently inspired and motivated cup and she chose to honor the creative, inspiriational and driven genius of other bright women. Women who'd stepped out on a limb, followed their dreams, made their own rules and launched into full fledged product success with amazing personal and professional results.
Real Woman on the Run is co-sponsoring a GlindaGirls trunk show during our Home Life Expert, Leah Richardson's annual Christmas Open House.
