>>What tugs at your heart?<<
I too, like to go with what tugs at my heart. We already tithe our income and don't necessarily have cash to donate, but there are some situations that I have to do something.
In this case one of the things that tugs at my heart as a quilter is knowing how many children lost their blankies and other comfort items. I finished a quilt to donate yesterday and started another today. As soon as I can locate a way to send them to the relief efforts, they will be on their way.
The other thing for me as a confirmed reader, is the books that were lost forever in in the flooding, both schools, libraries and individuals book collections. I am trying to raise funds through my Usborne book business so that any profits from books sales this month will be used to purchase books for the children involved in this tragedy. If anyone would like to help out by purchasing some books for themselves or others, here is the website:

I guess my concentration is so much on the children because of the terrible emotional scars that will be imprimted on them. Anything to give them care and confort and show that others care about them will go a long way towards helping them recover.
