Want to win a brand new Ipad?? Read on!
Olga and Kareen are 4-year-old little girls with down syndrome. They both live in orphanages in Eastern Europe. Children with Down Syndrome are not allowed to be a part of society in Eastern Europe. They are placed in institutions at birth and their fate is left to families in other countries where it is socially acceptable to have a child with a disability. Kareen and Olga need a forever family. When a child turns 5, they are transferred out of the baby orphanage, and into an inhumane institution. INHUMANE. And there, they die. They die from lack of love. They die from neglect. And it breaks my heart.

Reeces Rainbow is a website dedicated to helping babies with down syndrome find their forever families. RR raises awareness of these children and creates accounts for each waiting child. There are so many. I don't know how you could even choose who to give toward.
But Patti Rice is now giving away an Ipad to a lucky commenter who donates to Olga or Kareen. Head on over to her blog right now. There are actually up to 10 ways to enter the giveaway!
There is not a lack of families - only financial resources. Please, in this Christmas season, which we say is about giving, take a few moments to give a gift that will literally save a life!
Already since Patti has started the give-away, Olga's account has grown to over $10,000. No gift is too small! Please. Don't say you'll do it later. Do it now.
Kareen is at $1,120
from less than a hundred dollars!
Olga is at $12,345!!
