Our "Why"
Give a scholarship to a child for a year! This is great way to honor a loved one. Teach a child about the Addiction Monster! Scholarships are awarded in the name of your loved one. $25 per month (less than a daily latte) will provide a scholarship to a child for a year. 100% of all donations go to scholarship funding!
To honor you, I get up every day and take a breath.
And start another day without you in it.
To honor you, I laugh and love with those who knew your smile.
And the way your eyes twinkled with mischief and secret knowledge.
To honor you, I take the time to appreciate everyone I love.
I know now there is no guarantee of days or hours spent in their presence.
To honor you, I listen to music you would have liked.
And sing at the top of my lungs with the windows rolled down.
To honor you I take chances, say what I feel, hold nothing back.
Risk making a fool of myself, dance every dance.
You were my light, my heart, my gift of love, from the very highest source.
So every day, I vow to make a difference, share a smile, live, laugh, and love.
Now I live for both of us, so all I do, I do to honor you.
