This year, Christmas is going to be a bit different for my family. Rather than focusing on the gifts we are to receive, we're focusing on giving. My kids get gifts all year long thanks to blogging. This year, the Holiday season is going to be all about giving back to a family who deserves it.
You see, a few days ago, Corey was senselessly murdered. He was shot 5 times in the chest, and left to die. His family discovered his lifeless body the next day, and now their lives are turned upside-down. Two children, ages 3 and 6, lost their Daddy. A woman lost the man that she was to marry in just 6 months. This family has been torn apart, and right before the Holidays. Can you even imagine the pain, grief, and confusion they must be feeling? Corey was a very giving man who was passionate about helping others. He helped those who were sick, primarily. He taught many people how to change their diets to maximize health, he helped numerous people quit smoking, and he was a shoulder to lean on for anyone who was struggling. Corey was a good man, and he didn't deserve to die. Thankfully, there have been several arrests for his murder. The people who robbed and shot him are behind bars where they belong. Still, his family is left behind to try and pick up the pieces and learn how to live without him. This year, some friends and I have a special mission: Christmas for Corey. We want to help make sure that this family, the kids especially, have the best Christmas they possibly can. We will be collecting toys, clothing, and other gifts for Corey's family. Dan, my husband, will be wearing a Santa suit, and we will be showering this family with love and support during this difficult time. I have a lot of wonderful things in the works, but I need some help. I am looking to partner with brands who would like to donate giftable items that would go directly to Corey's family. In exchange, these brands will be offered a review, placement in my Holiday Gift Guide, and 6 MONTHS of FREE sidebar ad space. If you would like to help this cause and make Christmas special for a family suffering from a tremendous loss, please e-mail Brandy at newlycrunchymamaof3@gmail.com
