Instead of favors, donating to Make-A-Wish

Somebody passed on this great idea to me, so I thought I'd pass it on to all of you. I have opted to donate money to the Make-A-Wish foundation instead of favors. This foundation makes wishes come true for terminally ill children. They give you a scroll for each of your guests in your choice of color that say 'Please accept this donation in lieu of a favor'. I thought it was so great because I was stuck on favors....I didn't want to give something that I knew would end up in the garbage or remain unused. You can call information to get the number. Good luck all!!!

Yes, or any charity for that matter..(m)

I`ve decided to donate the money to the Leukemia Society. I think it`s a great idea to donate to a charity. So often, the favors are brought home and forgotten soon after the wedding anyway.

We are planning on donating, but we have not picked a charity yet. I am a teacher, and this would be a great choice for us! Do you have any contact info? If so, please pass it on as well. Thanks!!
