Adoption is near and dear to the heart of Cara of Blue Times 2. She was adopted as an infant herself and knows the blessing of adoption. When we asked her to consider being a part of our efforts to Build the Nest through her great store, she didn’t hesitate at all, desiring to help adoptive parents (which she hopes to be herself one day).

 

She’s a specialist in personalized goodies—and has completely made me fall for her personalized iPhone/iPad plug wraps. I’m placing my own order today for one to match my Gripcase.

Cara is helping us Build the Nest this month, giving us a jump start by sponsoring the event. And, she giving away a monogrammed treat here just so that we can drive some traffic over and raise awareness of the Build the Nest fundraiser going on this month to benefit The Sparrow Fund’s work to support adoptive families. That’s what all these giveaways are really all about.

Enter to win this adorable summer market tote which will be personalized just for the winner. And, go check out all the partners’ sites. (If you leave a comment naming just one thing you have ordered/purchased from one of them this month, you get an extra 10 entries for any of the giveaways going on right now…and there are quite a few!)

Wanna hear something cool? When small businesses have such a community that they rally behind the causes that make their community’s heart beat faster. That’s what we’ve got here.

Sara Kauffman of New Holland Coffee Company had never really been exposed to adoption before. With friends of NHCC now bringing home twins from the DRC and other friends fostering to adopt, she’s been learning about all that goes into adopting and parenting children who have been adopted.

When The Sparrow Fund hosted Together Called for married couples this past February, Sara shared New Holland beans with us as we sought to give these couples the red carpet treatment. And, this month, Sara became a sponsor of our effort to Build the Nest this May to get us a head start so that we can continue to serve adoptive families.

To help us drive some traffic over and raise awareness of the Build the Nest fundraiser going on this month, Sara’s offered to giveaway 2 lbs. of New Holland Coffee Company’s fresh roasted coffee. And, believe me, you want to win every. last. bean. in. each. pound. (I speak from experience, can you tell?)

So, go ahead. It’s an easy entry, but take a little more time to go check out all the partners’ sites. (If you leave a comment naming just one thing you have ordered/purchased from one of them this month, you get an extra 10 entries for any of the giveaways going on right now…and there are quite a few!)
