The Birthday Project Countdown--TODAY is the last day to give!

June is finally here...there are no more days left left before we arrive at Johnny's birthday and the close of our 2012 Birthday Project for Project Pueblo. Don't miss the opportunity of telling Johnny "Happy Birthday" with a donation to this worthy project.
Image
 The clock is speeding toward the finish of this year's birthday project to give the gift of water for a few Navajo elders.
Won't you assist in helping to give them this very simple gift...a clean glass of water?
Donation details are on this thread: [/color]

Please take a few minutes every day to pray for our water. Water is the lifeblood of Mother Earth. The best way to help our planet and our waters is to love and be true to ourselves and each other. Because water holds and reflects memory, thought, intention and emotion, WE MUST LOOK WITHIN for the love and joy we are seeking, and we MUST pick up our sacred bundles. In other words, we each need to connect with and honour the spirit within us, in order to help heal the waters of this planet... and ultimately to heal ourselves.

Thanks for the videos, Snoopy! A little 'mood music' for clicking on that PayPal button...yes?

Well, we're in the home stretch now. Just 5 more days until Johnny's birthday and the close of this year's birthday project!

And not only The Brave and TLR, but the theme in Rango :rango2: also correlates to this birthday project--the dry town's desperate need for water! :rango1: ("Cool...clear...water..") :yes:

Thanks everyone for all your support and donations! We have received many of your checks in the mail so far, and I can't tell you how humbled and honored we are to be participating in your fundraiser. :loveshower: :biggrin:

From the looks of it, we should be able to install many water systems for some families that are in dire need. I'll keep you all updated! We are hoping to do some of these this summer.

Thanks again,

Sean

Alright. I committed in May to come back in June and dig deep and do it again. So I have.

Thank you Theresa and the Zone for the opportunity to see what needs to be done. Every year we do this in honor of our actor's birthday. It's such a beautiful thing, joining hands over space, over time, and helping someone. This year's project is very meaningful to me as I drove through the Bennett Freeze in April in the process of moving my brother's car from California to the East Coast. What an exquisitely beautiful land, but the poverty stunned me. The only thing I could think of was a trip to Port-Au-Prince, Haiti -- the same bewildering sight -- immense poverty is a confusing thing. I came back determined to do something. And what do I find? Theresa's got it nailed. Zone, you move me.

I have donated several times on my own behalf. This one will be in honor of my Father, on what would have been his Birthday, Happy Birthday Dad
