Feel like giving a random redditor a free pizza, but didn’t know how or who? Well this is the right place for you! (via RAOP - Restoring Faith in Humanity, One Slice at a Time)
A Movember to Remember
Last year I raised over $100 through sponsorship of my ‘stache.
Here’s another great Movember story via Chimpotle:
Up until last night, I was completely unaware of the event known as Movember. Men all around the world are encouraged to shave their face clean on Saturday, November 1 and then grow out their facial hair, especially a moustache over the entire course of November.
All of this is done and…
Go crazy (philanthropic) folks! Go crazy…
The St. Louis Cardinals and Kansas City Royals have joined forces with the Governors office to help raise money for Joplin, Mo., and the area devastated by the tornado last month. The teams will dedicate their upcoming series at Busch Stadium to Joplin and the weekend will include fundraisers to help with Joplin relief.
The plan, as announced during a press conference Wednesday in Joplin, will be called “Teams Unite for Joplin.” Both teams will wear the patch seen above during the series. Those patches will also be sold during the series to raise money for Joplin recovery.
Fans also will have a chance to bid on game-used baseballs, lineup cards, bases, autographed items and, on Father’s Day, take part in a jersey-off-their-back auction.
JUNE is ADOPT-A-SHELTER-CAT MONTH!
No joke here! It’s kitten season. Shelters are full.
Help get the word out. REBLOG THIS!
I will pick one reblog at random and that blogger will win a group of FIVE VINTAGE CAT POSTCARDS from my collection. (My choice of cards.)
I will announce the winner next Thursday, June 9 at 8:00 PM EDT.
THANKS!!!

Seconded. @brewnoob and Toothpick Swords are native Missourians and adopted Missourians. But even if we weren’t, we’d tell you to support the Joplin residents anyway.
