In the days leading up to November 14th, The Pearl Curriculum will be teaming up with Patti Friday (my Mom!) to bring awareness to World Diabetes Day 2010. In doing so, we will be raising funds for the Canadian Diabetes Association through our membership with TEAM DIABETES. If you wish to be apart of it, YOU CAN BE! Here's how:
1) Make a $14 donation to Phillip or Lindsay by clicking on the "Donate" tab above. Please note the significance of the $14 donation to World Diabetes Day itself and to the discoverer of insulin - Frederick Banting! (November 14th is his birthday!)
2) Get creative. FIND BLUE and CAPTURE IT! If you can't find it, MAKE IT! "Blue" is the only requirement, so allow your imagination to guide you from there!
3) Submit your photo of SOMETHING BLUE to pattifriday (at) hotmail (dot) com (http://www.pattifriday.com/) , where it will be posted and admired by onlookers of the artistic type :) You never know - your contribution to this cause just may land you your next 'arts and crafts' GIG!
Further details may be viewed on Patti Friday's blog.
We look forward to seeing the products of your compassionate talent! Take a camera and GO! FIND BLUE! HELP OUT! HAVE FUN!
Sidenote: Phil is so into the idea of "going blue" that he came home from basketball with a shiner! Yes, lovely shades of blue are decorating his eye area at the moment and I am trying to tell him that dedication doesn't always have to mean pain. Perhaps that will be my "blue" picture. Although at this point, I think it's simply too obvious on his face. I'm up for a bigger challenge. Wish me luck!
Get started now!
