Nordic Naturals Back To School Prize Pack Giveaway

One of my favorite ways to give back is to make purchase from brands and businesses that support a charitable cause I identify with. This back-to-school season, you can boost your child's immune system AND help make donations to kids in need at the same time simply by purchasing your favorite Nordic Naturals products!

Each year, Nordic Naturals looks for ways to empower young people in their pursuit of education. This year, Nordic Naturals has partnered with Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS), an internationally recognized non-profit that seeks to provide children facing adversity with strong, professionally supported one-to-one relationships that change their lives for the better, forever.

From July through September 2015, for every bottle of Nordic Naturals children's products sold, the company will donate $1 to BBBS, for a total contribution of up to $25,000. All bottle sizes of Nordic Naturals children’s products qualify for the promotion, including the company’s best-selling Baby’s DHA, Children’s DHA, Omega Boost Junior and Nordic Berries.

As one of the newest addition to the Nordic Naturals family, Omega Boost™ Junior offers a tasty way to give kids two years and older the essential omega-3 nutrition they need for brain, eye, and immune system health. It contains 285 mg omega-3s per serving, with no artificial coloring, flavoring, or preservatives. It is also Non-GMO verified.

These stories are combined with practical financial advice to empower you to give more to a cause without giving up your family or your career.

The book answers these questions:

• How do I get out of debt and stay out of debt?
• Which charity or cause do I choose to make my donation?
• How do I decide where to volunteer?
• How can our family plan a volunteer vacation?
• How can I save money for retirement?

This must-read book provides an overview of philanthropy in America and around the world, providing you with a clear picture of charity and its fruits. You'll learn the ability to leave your mark on the world! You may come back in early November to read my review of the book.

Insure Your Love & Win $500 for Your Valentine!

I was recently introduced to the LIFE Foundation, a non-profit organization committed to educating people about various types of insurance, particularly the ones that are often overlooked: life insurance, disability and long-term care insurance. In spirit of Valentine's Day, the LIFE Foundation has launched the Insure Your Love campaign to help you realize the close connection between love and life insurance. Purchase a life insurance policy for your sweetheart this Valentine's Day and it will sure make the best gift ever--one to remember, one to last a lifetime, and one to protect her financially even after you're gone!

During the month of February, the LIFE foundation is inviting members in their online community to share a picture or video that shows how you’ve expressed your love to someone dear to you. Check out this touching video LIFE created last year.




More videos like this are available on the Insure Your Love website. Feel free to share your own with LIFE on Facebook and Twitter.

To add more fun to this Valentine's Day, LIFE has created the Romance-O-Meter interactive quiz, through which people can determine how romantic – or unromantic – they are, by answering three multiple choice questions. Between now and February 28th, anyone who takes the quiz will be automatically entered to win a $500 American Express gift card! You may use it to do something special for your valentine, such as buying lift insurance. Share your quiz results with me if you like =)

Think you know too little about insurance to make a wise choice? The LIFE Foundation website is an excellent source of consumer-friendly information and tools to help you get started. I've learned a lot by browsing their site. I strongly encourage you to check it out and bookmark it for future reference.

Disclosure: I will receive a thank-you gift for helping spread the word about the Insure Your Love campaign. No monetary compensation was provided. All relevant info was provided by the LIFE Foundation.
