Helptoberfest 2020
Back in late September of 2013 I was
having a crappy day when I received an email that lifted my spirits. Someone
that I know took a minute of their time to do something that probably would
seem small and trivial to most, but could result in a positive outcome. It got
me thing about an article that an old high school friend had recently wrote;
“Stand Up For Something, Staying Good At Life”. The major part of the article
is “Assistance comes in many forms. Volunteer in your community. Help by giving
someone a good referral. Put in a good word for someone. Hold open a door for
someone. Make a donation. Be active in your community. Smile at someone.” So I
came up with this idea for the month, Helptoberfest and for the month of
October I posted about different charities, events and inspirational quotes.
I skipped the last two years for
whatever reasons, but this year I’m back, and for the month of October I will
donate 10% of sales to charities and organizations that are environmentally
and/or outdoor focused. I’ll donate to four different groups, one will be
highlighted for a seven day or so period. If you are involved with or know of
one that you would like to see featured let me know. Aina is a very small business, it
won’t be a lot of coin, but every bit helps.
Hopefully this
reminds you to “Stay Good At Life”.
