Lots of Global Grandmothers don't have grandkids!  Here's how one such Grand-other,  Kate Parnes of Redwood City, California, keeps her linked giving pledge:

Kate, on right,  and her sisters

"As a 'Global Grand-other' I have realized there are many opportunities for linked giving.  My sisters and I live far apart, but I found that sending them linked gifts through the year is a perfect way to stay close across the miles.  Whether it's a birthday, anniversary,  or just an 'I Love You' message, it is easy to make a donation to a GG recommended charity.  I love both remembering my sisters and helping kids."  

If you're not sure where to give this month, consider Polaris.  It is in the forefront of the fight against human trafficking.  Click here to learn more.

Whatever the weather, giving makes your day more sunny.
