BIG ask this week! We're conducting another fundraiser for an incredible organization, Give Kids The World. These are the "behind the scenes" folks who help Make-A-Wish vacations happen for critically ill children. Give Kids The World provides free housing, meals, medical staff, theme park tickets and so much more to make these wishes come true.

Even if you only can spare $5, we'd love to have you support the fundraiser. AND, if we can raise $1,000 to my link, I'm matching it with $1,000 of my own money.

Here's my fundraising link!

If you want to support the team page, where Richard, Summer and Julian are raising, that's here:

'Any donation is a big help!

Ed has a dilemma in deciding whether he should pick Diamond status or 119,000 SkyMiles in exchange for his Rollover MQMs.
