Do Something Good
This week, I wanted to share with you the charity, SOME, or So Others May Eat. SOME is an organization that helps the homeless and poor in the DC area. In addition to serving meals, they also provide visits to doctors, job training, and affordable housing throughout the DC area. If you’re not local to DC, many cities have similar charities with a wide variety of ways that you can get involved.
A number of them will take food donations-we’re actually running a food drive for SOME at the Pure Barre in DC this November. But if you have some free time, many also offer other volunteer opportunities such tutoring children or serving food in the Dining Room.
Do you have a similar organization in your area?

Shopping Time
- I’m looking to sell a brand new, unused 2016 Emily Ley Planner. Would anyone be interested? Comment below with your email address to let me know!
- With the holidays (and gift buying) coming up, why not find an easy way to make some extra cash? Just sign up for Ebates. You get cash back when you buy your gifts online, so it’s kind of a no-brainer. Also, if you sign up, I’ll stop telling you to sign up. Maybe.
