Remember when Corrin told us all about Love Drop? Well, I joined the network—and I’m excited to help spread the word about this month’s recipient. Jill and her kids were homeless. When they finally had a place to live? They lost everything in a fire and find themselves homeless once again. Yet, Jill continues to give to others where she can.

I think her story is amazing, and I’m excited that the Love Drop team will be descending on her later this month—with gifts, money and support from around the world. Even if you aren’t able to financially support the concept, you can still help drop a little love in Chicago. The project is just begging for you to come up with creative & fun ways to make a difference in this family’s life.

Here’s how you can help this month:

• Join the team—Become a member by paying whatever you want. Even $1.00.
• Join our blogger network—Blog about the Love Drops once a month! It’s easy, it’s rewarding, and it REALLY helps spread the word (which in turn helps the families!). Love Drop will give you all the content you need.
• Give a gift or provide a service—Gift cards, household goods, football cards/jerseys for the boys, web design services, pampering gifts for Jill, etc. (email all ideas/questions to team (at) lovedrop.us, and they’ll make it happen!
