Dreamy Encounters and a Resource for You


About a year ago, I began saving links to sites, posts, and agencies with others-centered messages and missions.

I copied and pasted information on my little Word document and these cool finds remained hidden on my hard drive. Yep, like my own little private library.

But the problem was you guys can’t exactly pop over and see my library of others-centered treasures and that disappointed me. After all, what good are these if no one ever uses them?

Then, a meeting occurred.

Amy, I’d like you to meet PinterestWhew, he’s so dreamy.

Pinterest, this is Amy. Woo, this one is going to fall hard. I feel it.




For the most part, I’ve kept our relationship private, but well, since I put the button on my blog and all, it’s time to just come out.

It’s my hope to create a growing list of resources on causes and organizations that prick your heart and inspire action.

Want to do good as a family? There’s a place for you.
Hope to shop with a purpose? I've got that too.
Does human trafficking make you squirm? Resources are available.
Need inspiration of the teenage variety? Got it.
Want to battle poverty? That’s what I thought.
Raising girls? Me too.
Desire to serve Asheville, NC? Oh, yeah.
Have terrible taste in music? I can help (totally under-rated, but very serious issue).

Oh, and before you click over, I should warn you these aren’t all feel good categories. Nope, Oh-la-la Clothes serves no one, but me, and well, Dreamy Décor? I just couldn’t help myself.

Anyway, please take a minute to browse and make sure to drop me a note when you stumble across people and places I should include. Upcoming boards include Portable Projects (projects and project ideas that can be completed anywhere) and Soldier Love.

Now, go Pinterest like you mean it.

Thanks for showing up here. Thanks for reading. Thanks for your desire to serve God and impact the world.
Do you have any organizations I could add right now? What service related boards would you like to see in the future?

What a great idea...here is a link to a site I found on Linda's site via Laura Boggess...http://www.freedomyouthproject.org/2011/07/must-read-for-every-teen-online.html

I think it is great what you are doing...if I rejoin Pinterest, I would definitely follow you. Thanks, Amy.

Awesome! I don't do too much with Pinterest, probably in part for many of the above reasons you mentioned but I like this! Would love to connect on there.
