Anyone who reads or has met Suebob knows the woman is a selfless ball of fun and here's proof. In turning 50, she realized the great bounty that is her life and opted to return the favor by eschewing cake and presents and instead asking others to give back. Truly inspirational.

"Here’s the plan: each day, for the next 50 days, I will feature one worthwhile organization that is doing good works. I want my gift to be to open up this space to these organizations and see what happens. I’d like for people to pick one or several and get involved, either by donating, volunteering or taking action. I’ll give information about the organization, a donation link, and, if I can, a way to take action other than through a monetary donation."

Having just turned 50 (and still finding myself cringing at the thought), I want to thank you for reminding me to find the opportunity in every challenge, to appreciate all that surrounds me and to continue to give back. But I must add that while I can forgo the presents, cake is out of the question.
