Celebrate Valentine’s Day With Positive Words of Encouragement and Support Albion Fellows Bacon Center Too
Valentine's Day is one of those holidays that is hit or miss with a lot of people. On the one hand, sure, it is romantic to send flowers and chocolates and plan a sweet date experience for your partner. But on the flip side of that, shouldn't you be doing things like that all year long?
Do You Prefer to Give Rather Than Receive?
Look, I get it. Not everyone has a partner who thinks about those small random gestures - and that's ok. We get busy and life gets hectic or maybe you are like me and out of the Five Love Languages, receiving gifts is at the bottom of your Love Language profile. If I am being 100% honest, I much more prefer to give a gift than to receive a gift.
Small Thoughtful Gifts Often Mean More
Now please don't misunderstand - I do still love to receive gifts. I just personally prefer to receive small, thoughtful, "this made me think of you" type gifts for no real reason other than, well, they thought of me when they saw it. I also appreciate gifts that somehow give back and do good...
Why Not Give and Give Back?
I think that may be why I appreciate the gift opportunity being offered by Albion Fellows Bacon Center. They are offering "positive and empowering encouragement" for the cost of a small donation to the 501 c3 non-profit. You can make a $5 donation to Albion Fellows Bacon Center and they will include your empowering candy-heart Valentine in their Virtual Valentine Video.
