Thankful Thursday Blog Hop: Helping the Moms That Need Help

thankful thursday blog hop brian 10272022

Hello everyone, thanks for stopping by for our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.  I am always thankful to each of you for joining us!  Each and every Thursday we share the things for which we are most thankful and we always enjoy reading all of the things you are thankful for too. If you are new to our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop, thanks for hopping in, we really do get excited when new blogger pals join us!

Today we are thankful for one of our community organizations that does lots of good things for lots of Moms…and Dads too. That would be an organization called Let There Be Mom. Let There Be Mom is a nonprofit organization here in Greenville, SC that is dedicated to serving local moms and dads who are battling a life-threatening illness. That chilling description tells you there is a definite need to be served and we’re thankful for groups like this one that step up to tackle these challenges. Their primary mission is to help Moms and Dads preserve their legacies.

This time of year is when they have one of their primary fundraisers. It’s called Dine Out for Mom and there is about 120 local restaurants that will donate 20% of their total sales for today, October 27th ,to Let There Be Mom. That’s a percent of all sales even including carry out and gift cards. They have volunteers at the restaurants that will also offer chances on lots of items that were donated and are being raffled off. It’s nice to get the whole community involved in this effort and we’re thankful for all the humans that help make it a success.

So, what are you thankful for today? Tell us in the comments and then join us for our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop. Remember, adopt cats, we deserve it!!!!! More Forever Homes More Often! Purrrrr! Zip! Later!

Yeah Moms (and Dads) need help raing their kids. The economics are bad sometimes.

We loved your thoughtful look in that pic.

Also, thank you for adding Laz’s Birthday to the calendar.

Wow, Brian, you nearly have me in (happy) tears over here (yeah, I’m a softie). It just makes my heart smile to hear about organizations like this. I wish I could go to a restaurant for the fundraiser. Is there a way I can donate directly to them? I would love to support this amazing cause. <3

Brian that is such a wonderful thing that the restaurants are doing to help people who have special needs. And then that makes it very nice for people like your mom and dad to go out and have a nice dinner also. We are thankful there are organizations like this all about and we should support them.

What a great idea and a wonderful cause. If you are ill, you can really be in a jam without being able to help yourself.

I enjoyed your post as always. That is a wonderful organization. I like such wonderful kind hearts. Our son-in-law Roger opted to leave the hospital and he is on hospice care. He says he is waiting for their youngest son to return home from their Florida trip . It has been difficult. Prayer is so greatly appreciated. I love seeing all of oyu here. Thank you.

What a great share! I try every day to find thankfuls all around me. Today it is cold and dark and icy snow was falling. The view outside my window is a blanket of white skies. I don’t like to see Fall slip away but eventually each season must change. I am blessed to know you here. Thank you.
