I posted this on the Current Events board this morning because it gets a lot of traffic. I wanted to get the word out here as well.

This little girl lost her family in a fire and has been badly burned. The poor thing has had 50 surgeries!!

All she wants for Christmas are lots and lots of cards. Her PO Box is at the bottom of the article. Please do a good deed this holiday season and make her smile.

I'm sending her a card, and also sharing on my FB personal and business pages. Please share this with everyone that you know. What a great thing to do

Thanks for the link, Val!

Yes, I will send this to friends as well. Yes, it is a great thing to do (and easy).

By the way, I tried to access your website/posted on your wall, I think it was an FB, and it is not working

YOU ARE WANTED IN THE COUNTRY thread/PORCH! There is cake & mojitos!
You can still bring some chocolate cake




Thanks to the OP for letting us know of this little girl. The picture is heartbreaking....I pray that she gets better.

I wanted to post an update on this sweet little girl. To date she has received hundreds of thousands of cards and several thousand packages from all over the world.

I love this story and this sweet girl. All these kind people are restoring my faith in humanity

Sometimes it takes so little to touch anothers heart especially when the little thing is compounded by thousands of people !


It's impossible
they say
you can't change
the world by acts
of kindness like
sending a burn victim
a Christmas card
or handing a homeless
person a gift certificate for
clothes or a bag of basic
toiletries or even a meal
or looking beyond your
petty prejudice to help
a person out
And they may be right
but I'm gonna try anyway
I might not change the world
like they say
but I sure as heck am
gonna make a difference
in that persons life
even for a moment
and sometimes..that
moment is enough
