Helping People

Not one of us can eradicate homelessness. Not one of us can feed all the hungry. Not one of us protect all those in danger. Not one of us can cure all the ills, or educate all those in need. But, together one day at a time, one stitch at a time, one point at a time...WE CAN make an important difference. We can and do warm people in need with our knitting and crocheting. And together with our points from Superpoints, we are helping (though much more is needed) kids in need obtain school text books.

The above school books were delivered to my Daughter, Christine the other day. These were purchased (used) from Amazon with the help of Amazon gift cards obtained from converting points from Superpoints. We're working hard, my Daughter and I to continue to earn Superpoints to convert them to Amazon Gift Cards, so many more books are needed. To give you a feel for difficulty of this task (AND THE NEED to have MORE of YOU JOIN US), the above used Health Text Book cost $42.00. That's one used book for one student. So, please join us. 3 simple quick steps will help
  1. Click any of the highlighted superpoints words above
  2. Fill out your mini registration
  3. Verify your email address, AND complete your mini profile/and or post a photo
That's it! With those 3 easy steps, you've begun to earn points. Spin daily to gain additional points. Do surveys, play games, shop and or clip coupons. When you earn points so do we. So, it's a win win. There are many things you can do with your points for you and your family. Enjoy and please Help us Help those kids!

SPECIAL THANKS TO THOSE WHO'VE ALREADY JOINED AND SPIN DAILY, WE TRULY APPRECIATE EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU. (It's best to open a 2nd email account if you're going to do more then spin...much nicer keeping all your email separated.).

PLEASE leave your name and url, NOT a profile link, not a google or google plus. Only name and url will take me directly to your blog to return the favor of a comment.

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
