Here is a way you can send your love this Valentine's Day AND help a very good cause at the same time.
One of our favorite non-profit organizations, Save The Children (headquartered right here in Connecticut) is offering specially designed Valentine's Day cards for $25 per collection.
The first set of cards (above) were designed by seven different children book illustrators (my favorite is Mo Williams of "Don't Let The Pigeon Drive The Bus" fame!). The second set is artwork created by children ages 11-17 from across the country.
From the Save the Children website: With your donation of $25 or more, you will receive 28 children's cards (4 cards of each design) designed by contemporary artists. Your contribution will help us provide programs that focus on early childhood education, literacy, physical activity and nutrition for children in need who live in remote, rural regions of the U.S.
Below is the video of Julianne Moore, actress and Artist Ambassador for Save the Children, on the Today show this morning with the Valentine's Day cards:

We are on SUCH a Mo Williams kick in our house. Madeline loves how he ties all of his books together--the Pigeon pops up in Elephant and Piggie books, the famous hot dog is in Knufflebunny, Knufflebunny makes an appearance in Don't Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late!... Mo Williams is by far our favorite children's book author right now--thanks for the STC head's up!
