Greetings!
Diana McDonough
Happy Summer Solstice!  Today at 7:09 pm summer begins in the northern hemisphere.  And, in the northern hemisphere, it's the longest day of the year.  Nothing like all that sunshine to give us the best possible grandmotherly dispositions!

The GG board is in a good mood for yet another reason:  today we are launching our new and improved website!  Yes -- the GRAND grandmothers website has become even GRANDER!  Here are a few of the reasons we are patting ourselves on the back -- although we should acknowledge that you gave us most of these good ideas: 
  • iPad-friendly navigation!  Hard to believe, but when we launched our website 18 short months ago, iPads were just on the market.  
  • A home page that explains who we are more clearly - a movement of grandmothers who share with children in need as they share with their own grandchildren.
  • A Blog!!  Yes we now have our own blog, the last tab on the navigation bar.  You can comment on anything you see there by entering your name and email address.  We think this will become a valuable center for exchanging information.
  • The Kids' Page!!  You have encouraged us to develop ways to involve our grandkids in giving.  We think the page is gorgeous, and even better, fun, educational, and useful.  Click here to see for yourself.
    Global Grandmothers Passport of Giving
  • The Kid's Passport of Giving.  Now you can print out this cool passport and start keeping track of your GG charitable giving with your grandchild.  Find it on the "Kids' Page."  

So check out the site, www.globalgrandmothers.org.  We hope you like it and will want to tell your friends.  You will find "Spread the Word" assists on the home page and under "Join the Movement."  

 

Happy summer, living and giving!
