Best news for the Giveaway!
I have some awesome news! Someone has graiously offered to match $100 for the next $100 donated to the Giveaway so Please donate and/or share! Time limit for it is up to you! So far we have gotten 49 entries for donating and/or sharing! The Giveaway ends October 1st & their is still plenty of time left! Remember if we reach $1,000 Cora Lynne will benefit from the Giveaway as well! If we continue to make progress I might do a much BIGGER one in December for Cora Lynne (if I get to be her angel tree warrior) So make a difference for 2 special little girls!
Suggestions anyone?
I am trusting God will provide but I want to ask if you have suggestions and/or advice for the Giveaway? Its been kinda slow for several days now. Do you want to see more prizes & have a goal to reach?

Helpless
A girl waits far away, waiting helplessly for a family? Don't you see the smile in her eyes?
Why has she not gotten a family when who could resist that smile? Simple, I looked at her region which could cost at the minimum of $33,000. Thats right you heard correctly, this is what stands in the way for Celine to find a family. Let's do what we can by removing the financial barrier for her forever family! We have raised $100 in the Giveaway can we raise $100 more? I am doing the Just Between Friend Kids consignment sale this weekend & another one in October with any proceeds going to Celine. I love her so much, & I can't be her mommy cause I am too young so Please will you share about the Giveaway today? Remember, the more who know about the Giveaway the better the chance the girls could find a family & possibility of contributers. If you are interested in Celine or Cora Lynne contact Andrea from Reeces Rainbow. Plus, know I will support you the best I can to help you fundraise!

Shoot for the Stars Giveaway UPDATED with new prize!
Like a shooting star Celine wishes for a family, waiting & wondering when that wish will come true. To help fulfill that wish she needs our help! Adoption can cost anywhere from $20,000-$40,000. I know EXPENSIVE, & from what I have heard from others where Celine is at is one of the HIGHER COST countries. To help, I am doing a Giveaway to help offset the financial cost for a family to adopt her. I don't have any fancy electronics but I do have some nice prizes & what more can a girl do to help make Celine's wish come true? I have received some nice prize donations so let the fun begin! $5 per entry or $10 for 3 entries. Can't donate right now? Well you can get 1 entry for posting on Facebook, 1 for twitter, & 1 for a blog post.
Prizes will be shipped directly from prize contributor unless specified. Can Only ship to USA on all prizes.
First up we have the book I Wished for You An Adoption Story donated by Katrina retailed at $10
Next, this lovely tutu size 3t donated by Reagen Lynn Inspirations retailed at $50
And because the girls of To Love the Unloved are so nice to share some of the love that's been given to them we have this bracelet Made with various colours of swarkovski crystals! What a better way to show your support to Reece's Rainbow!
Because who does not love Starbucks my mom & I have combined efforts to make a combo prize of this Starbucks mug & $5 gift card!
I could not find a picture of the birdy gift card I got so here's a picture of Starbucks.
& the Starbucks mug Package value of $15
2 Handmade bracelets & a Wiener dog Print package (not pictured)
The lovely All Life is Precious Necklace, the T21 representing the 21st chromosome donated by OllieFaithDesigns etsy shop Valued at $44
& for you moms with a boy with that extra chromosome this is an awesome shirt donated by Gretchen Thibault size 2-4 but she says she thinks it might work best for sz 3t
Next is a $15 gift certificate to Handiwork for Lily, these are some awesome young girls raising awareness for the kids on Reeces Rainbow. Sarah has 2 brothers adopted through Reeces Rainbow. Here's a sample of the handmade goodies you can enjoy,
& feel free to check out their blog Handiwork for Lily
A lovely Adoption Pendant Necklace donated by Sarah, formerly the owner of the etsy shop SarahsTreasureBox.
A $25 chili's gift card donated by Stephanie Lynch
So my friend Mischel makes these awesome hippos for shower gifts & I just LOVE THEM so I asked her if she would donate one & she said yes. (picture not available right now)
So there you have it, some awesome prizes! Donate to the chipin at the top right corner of the page & please leave comment saying you have donated or shared. Please put Celine in the notes part when you donate to make sure it gets to her! I have decided to add Cora Lynne into the giveaway once we reach $1,000. When I do add her, it won't be through a chipin but instead to the button to the right with her name that will also go directly to her grant but please wait til we reach that goal as I want to stick with my original main focus of Celine. All donations made to Reeces Rainbow are Tax Deductible! Also if you would still like to donate a prize to the giveaway please leave a comment with your contact email address & I will contact you. Since I have a limit due to being young & not a job, & the fact of having so many prizes to ship already (not a bad thing) any prize contributers from now on must be willing to ship to the winner. (only in the USA) I will delete comments once they are recieved for privacy sake since my blog is public. Giveaway ends October 1st & winners will be announced then on the blog.

My dear Celine
Some people might say why bother? Why do you care so much? How I discovered Reeces Rainbow was a God thing which I can't post it publicly. Its because, of how I came upon Reeces Rainbow that I fell for Quinton, Celine, & Cora Lynne. All the people involved helped me realize I could not just sit here doing nothing about their potentially fatal lives. Why do I care? Its Gods purpose for us to help the widows & orphans in distress. Celine & Cora Lynne, I care for you so much & I wish I could cross the ocean for both of you but since I can't thats why I fundraise through JBF or this Giveaway. I don't know if I would be the same person or even be advocating if I did not have a sister with that extra chromosome. My dear Celine, has a smile & personality as bright as the sun. Would you hate it if she got transfered to an institution? I sure would, & I would feel the same about my own sister if she had been born another century ago here in the USA or overseas in Eastern Europe. Please spread the word so I can continue making a difference for orphans like Celine, or Cora Lynne! Quinton is now safe in his new home, now I want the same for these girls! Please donate to the chipin for the giveaway or spread the word!
