Today is a special post. Today's I've partnered with Meaningful Beauty to share with you my most meaningful moment of 2011 as well as to take the time to donate to my favorite charity and yours too! This is a really personal post for me and i'm happy to share it with you all.
Check out the video!
2011 was probably one of the hardest year's of my life. I finished my first year of my Master's Program in Business, I worked full time, Blogged and did YouTube videos consistently, and worked as a freelance makeup artist. On top of it all, I went through a lot of personal issues which had me at my lowest point in years. I'm happy to see throughout all the struggle I made it through the year a success. Work, school, and my personal life is going great.
I'm also proud to say that this year after working my butt off, I got All A's in school, woo hoo! Being able to do that with all that is going on is truly one of my most meaningful moments of the year.
Meaningful Beauty has also been generous enough to donate $200 to my favorite charity. It's a perfect time of the year to give back. This year, I'm selecting the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. My mother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer...I haven't shared too much about this but i'm doing this in honor of her. She's currently battling the disease and we need all the help we can get to fight this.
Meaningful Beauty has also agreed to donate $100 to one of my lucky reader's favorite charities.
Here's how to win:
- Leave a comment to my video or this blog, or even better send me a video response.
- Tell me what charity you'd choose and why. I'll read every response and watch all the videos and select one that I touches me the most.
- Make sure to follow my blog or subscribe to my youtube and create a username so I can identify who you are.
- The contest is open through December 31st, 2011 and I'll announce the winner in 2011!
Again, thank you all for all your support throughout the year and also a big shout out to Meaningful Beauty for sponsoring this post.
Till next time, Ciao Bellas!
