A Kit for your Kindness – GKTW Gingerbread Run

Give Kids the World (GKTW) is literally the place where Dreams come true. Each year it fulfills the wishes of thousands of children by providing accommodations, meals, attraction tickets, and a whole lot of fun at a 70-acre whimsical resort. On Saturday, November 2nd 2013, Give Kids the World will be holding their annual 5K “Gingerbread Run.” This professionally-timed race winds through the Village, past snoring trees, magic castles and the world’s largest CANDYLAND game. It is a fun way to raise money for the Village, and help fulfill Wishes for more children!

I reeeeeally wish I could be there in person so that I could participate – it sounds like a lot of fun, and since I recently completed a 5K to benefit breast cancer patients, I’m not too intimidated by the distance. I unfortunately won’t be able to make the trip over from California to attend this event in person, but I did find a way for MouseScrappers to help… . Yep, I signed us up! MouseScrappers is an official ‘Virtual Participant’!

Of course I’m not going to ask you to donate without arranging for you to get a goodie in return, so I asked Wendy from Neverland Scraps if she could put together a 4-pack of her fabulous Pixie Plates. She not only put together one pack, she put together two!

Set 1 is perfect for pocket scrapping (e.g. Project Life / Project Mouse)
Pixie Plates #270-273
