Charity Hopping and Giveaway: St. Jude Children's Hospital


Hey everyone! Thanks for stopping by the Charity Hopping Around the World Hop hosted by I Am A Reader, Not a Writer; Reading Away the Days, and Reading A Little Bit of Everything. 

My son, DJ, passed away in 2003. He was an amazing child then, and now, my guardian angel. Born on May 5, 1997 weighing only 1 lb 5 oz...he surpassed every obstacle set in front of him for nearly 6 years. Because he was premature, trauma, and other complications at birth, DJ's body was inflicted with a condition known as Cerebral Palsy. To find out a little more about DJ...go HERE.

Multiple charities focus on helping children with disabilities and chronic illnesses. I'd like to acknowledge a few on this hop.


Please visit these links and find out more about what each of them do for children and their families.

Rachel Vincent, author of the Soul Screamer Series, is donating 100% of her royalties of her newest Novella, Never to Sleep, to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital for the next few months. Since she's being so kind...I thought I would give away 5 copies of the ebook to 5 lucky winners for this hop. And...since they are ebooks, the giveaway is international as long as you can download from either Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

Be sure to go look at Rachel's website for all the deets.
