June Tip: Helping with the Gulf Oil Spill

Hello our wonderful readers! It is mid-June and we have been pondering what would be a simple tip that could be immediately helpful.
As most of you know on April 20th there was a horrible oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. It has yet to be capped, fixed, or sealed. Many wild life are being very negatively effected by this unfortunate insistent. This is an immediate problem that is effecting our natural resources and more so the wildlife.
Choosing to be more GREEN sometimes means helping the natural habit around you and contributing to help keep the environment sustainable.
Our tip this month: Help this cause if you can. You can donate, volunteer, or even seek out new ways to contribute. It really is simple.

To Donate:
Help and buy a shirt to contribute! A GREAT, LOCAL, GROUP!
Another local charity, helping fishermen:

This link shares some QUICK ways you can help with the oil spill, VERY USEFUL!

To Volunteer:
~Same groups from above, just their volunteer section~
Also, we found this group on Facebook. It had the most members and looked the most legit. The group is called "Golf Coast Oil Spill Volunteers":

We hope at least ONE of the links above will motivate you to help. You'll be green while giving and feel good about it too.
