This morning a big story about We Are the World recording. I remember when the world came together to feed the children in Africa. This will surely go a long way to help.

I've decided to make a cookie with the profits going to Haitian children. If adoption isn't the answer, then perhaps making the children's current environment a better place is. There are so many great organizations Red Cross, Save the Children, World Vision etc. that are on the ground helping now. My goal is to find a smaller organization or orphanage to help directly. So, the first step will be researching the names of specific orphanages and the people running them. I think I know where to start......

There was much thought given to the cookie idea. At first I wanted to make a heart shaped cookie - perhaps with some children's art work (from my own children). Not sure I liked that..... I changed my mind.  I'm going with a bright yellow sun..... Thinking of naming it "Ray of Hope" or "Rays of Hope" cookie. I'm up for any suggestions! So, all profits made from the cookie will go to the organization/orphanage I find. I'm making the prototype this week. I'll post a photo.
