Ok so as you can see on, Thursday, June 1, 2018,
I had 23 days till I turned 33 this year and I
was the first to donate to my chosen charity To
Write Love On Her Arms. I started off by donating
$10.00 and am hoping that my friends and family
will help me donate $23.00 or more by the end of
June!!!
As of now, Sunday, June 3, 2018, I have 21 more
days till I turn 33, but I want to keep the
donations going until the end of June to make
sure that all of my friends and family and their
friends and family, have time to help donate what
they can or share if they can't donate.
So, Christa what is To Write Love On Her Arms
exactly?
"To Write Love on Her Arms is an American non-
profit organization which aims to present hope
for people struggling with addiction, depression,
self-injury and thoughts of suicide while also
investing directly into treatment and recovery.
Based in Melbourne, Florida, TWLOHA seeks to
connect people to treatment centers, websites,
books, support groups and other resources. TWLOHA
also encourages people to have honest
conversations about these issues, and to live in
community."

TWLOHA, you

Why did you choose it as your charity?
I choose it as my charity because when I was in
Middle School and 11 years in in the 6th grade
and I first started self injury and didn't know
what it was and dealing with depression and not
knowing with that was either. I ended up learning
about TWLOHA through one of the teen magazines
that wrote an article about it one month and I
ended up realizing that I related to it alot and
wanted to learn about it and so I did and I began
supporting it as much as I could by advertising
it online in my blogs and forums I was on and
talking about it to friends and family. I even
donated money to them when I had the chance and I
still do to this day as you can see.
