As some of you might know, I am a (proud while blushing) member of The Beauty Blog Network.
Recently, we learned that a few of our Network members had been diagnosed with cancer. While we have been sending our very best wishes to them, we would like to do more. We have decided to join together to raise awareness and money for cancer charities.
One of the things we are coming together for is Comments4aCure. On June 4th, 5th, and 6th, you can visit all the participating blogs and leave a comment on any of them. Each blogger will then donate a specific amount per each comment to a chosen cancer-related charity. (Please visit the Comments4aCure page for a list of participating blogs and their chosen charities.)
As for me, for every comment left on A Touch of Blusher during these three days, I will donate 1 US dollar (up to 30 US dollars in total) to Cancer Research UK.
There are also other ways you can help out our cause:
1. Teri from Beautiful Makeup Search has set up a great Comments4aCure CafePress Boutique, featuring a superb range of items. Please have a browse! (My personal favorite is the Teddy Bear!) All the profits from the sale of these items will be donated to National Brain Tumor Foundation.
2. If you would like to make a quick donation, you can chip in here. Elke Von Freudenberg, founder of The Beauty Blog Network, will make the donation to American Cancer Society on behalf of the Network.
3. On June 10th and lasting for 7 days, The Beauty Blog Network will be hosting a giant goodie bag auction on eBay, via Mission Fish. All proceeds will go to American Cancer Society. (You can already have a sneak peak at the exciting content of the goodie bag on the Comments4aCure page.)
4. Other Network members will also auction off their own goodie bags on eBay, with proceeds to their chosen charities.
I will provide the auction details closer to date.
So stay tuned for all the things happening in the coming days, and please help us make our charity cause a success!
