Day 12

Today I made a small donation to The Monday Life. I know... it's not Monday. I'm doin' it wrong.

The story behind this organization resonates with me for a number of reasons. Joey McMahon started the charity at age 23. He wanted to make Mondays not suck. He wanted to do something meaningful. He began, not by asking people for a check, but for pocket change. And only on Mondays.

The money raised was used to make life for hospitalized children just a tiny bit better. 

Two years, one lawsuit from the Children's Miracle Network, and one name change later, The Monday Life has expanded to hospitals all over the country.

To see the difference they're making, you can find them at the link above, or on Facebook.
