Toys for Tots: To Spread The Love of Christmas

"Internet Toy Drive Theme Song"

What exciting gifts are you preparing for your children this Christmas? While preparing for your precious children's presents this Christmas, it is also a good time to start thinking about others, especially those who are not as fortunate as us.

It is a sad fact that millions of children in United States does not have any single gifts to open during the "supposed to be" happy and joyous occassion.

However, this Christmas, things are about to change. The Internet Toy Drive, a charity move by several kind souls, Rick Beneteau, Anne Marie Baugh, Jl Scott and other internet partners is set up to put the long lost smiles back to the millions of needy children in United States.

This year, they have again partnered with the official U.S. Marines Toys for Tots Program to offer these children recognition, confidence and a positive memory for a lifetime.

On their website, your donation will be placed directly on the Toys for Tots Foundation secure server and dispersed to your community through the nearest United States Marines Corps Base. Else, you can also send a check by mail if you wish. And not to forget, an official tax deductible receipt will also be emailed to you by the U.S. Marines Toys for Tots Program immediately after your donation is made. What could be easier?

"What we give comes back to us, many times multiplied."

If it is your wish in this year Christmas to spread the customs and spirits of Christmas, go ahead and kindly make your donation directly on the Toys for Tots Foundation secure server.

Currently, I am selectively consolidating a bundle of self improvement products, specially for those who are willingly to offer a helping hand for this worthy cause. Within the few days, the product selection will be completed and will be made available for all the kind souls out there who have chosen to aid in the charity drive of the Internet Toy Drive and Toy for Tots.

More details on how to claim your FREE will be posted very soon. And for the time being, I will sincerely encourage you check out the following websites and donate generously to this charity drive.

Cambodia Siem Reap, Anyone?

Have you being to Siem Reap, Cambodia before? Yup, Cambodia a third world country and certainly doesn't rank well among all the countries in the world in terms of security, safety and hygiene.

Nevertheless, the country's beauty and serenity what I will go for if I were to visit that place again. No busy, shuffling of footsteps or people constantly looking at their watches wondering if they still could make it on time.

Just dirty streets and people walking around looking for jobs to do or ways on how to carry on with their lives. I don't know about you. However when I first step foot into Cambodia it definitely makes me think again.

Am I taking things for granted for the past 20+ years? Have I been grateful and appreciative of what I have been given? Too often, what is achieved easily is easily neglected.

Hopefully in the next few years I will have the chance to go over to Cambodia once again to experience the serenity and my peace of mind there.

Now, if you were thinking of giving Cambodia, the mystery country a visit, I will highly recommend you pay Angkor Wat a visit too. I am not sure if Angkor Wat is one of the 7 seven wonders in the world, however it is surely one of the many wonders in my heart.

And to kill 2 birds with 1 stone, won't it be better if you can do some charity work, travel and play at the same time?

As I was surfing the web for some information about Cambodia, I came across this Volunteer Travel where with a nominal fee, you will be able to travel to Cambodia, visit Angkor Wat and have the chance to interact with the people there and do charity at the same time!
