Happy Birthday to Me!

In lieu of birthday gifts this year, I'd like to instead request that you do one of the following for me (or BOTH if you're feeling extra generous!)

The first request is that you text MERCY to 89544 to donate $10 to Mercy Ministries. The charge will just be added to your cell phone bill (if your parents are still paying your cell phone bill, then this is even more perfect because you're not going to have to pay anything!) -- if you're feeling extra generous, you can always go to our website and donate any amount here.

The next request is that you go to your nearest American Red Cross and donate blood! The Red Cross is at a critical low this summer (they haven't had this short of a supply in 12 years), and sick people need our healthy blood! Lets save some lives, people! You can find out where your nearest Red Cross donation center is here and make an appointment.

If you donate to Mercy or donate to the Red Cross please let me know so I can properly thank you! I love and appreciate every single one of you -- thanks for helping make my 22nd birthday extra special!
