I'll tell you who gives - Betty Londergan. Her blog is called What Gives 365 and here is some insight on her thinking:
I’d been looking for a way to do some good in the world for a while but could never figure out exactly what to do – so I’ve settled on a random shotgun approach of giving to anything that rings my chimes –which hopefully will inspire other people to pry open their wallets and give as well. I’m using the money my dad left me to fund this venture – and since he and my mom were thrifty savers who were also passionate givers, it’s poetic justice that those hard-earned dimes and nickels will be passed along to good causes. Dorothy Mae would love that—and say that it’s about time I stopped buying so many darn shoes and did something for others.
Today she gives a shout-out to the New England Quilt Museum (yay!) by featuring a beautiful quilt from the collection, and gives props to the Quilt Index and the Alliance for American Quilts. It's a wonderful blog entry - just click on this link. Thanks, Betty!
