A friend who lives in Paducah, Kentucky, has been hard hit by economics. To add insult to injury, she and her family and friends were hardest hit by the terrific ice storm that hit Kentucky last month.
Let’s make this even worse…her father was admitted to the hospital during the ice storm, and – although he’s been allowed to go home – he walks with a cane and can barely get around. So, our friend is helping her father with his business as she tries to run her own jewelry biz.
Wait – there’s more! Her daughter, whom she names, “Puddles,” has an auditory disorder, but she has been blossoming in a dance class. Unfortunately, that class was obliterated when her sponsor lost her business.
Now, Puddles is ready for national dance competitions, but she doesn’t have the money to make it to the event. Our friend has raised enough money for her outfit, but still needs some money for the two trips – the first being to Chattanooga. The cost? About $300-$400 dollars.
If 40 people donated just $10, that trip is possible. And, this is not a rip-off…you all trust us, right? And Christina Jade is very real. You can follow her on Twitter if you want at @ChristinaJade. She’s the same gal who helped out with all the dogs from Graves County, KY in November. You also can check out her Web site, where she concentrates mainly on helping stray and abused animals.
