Have an idea for Oprah's Big Give in Western Oregon?

We only have a couple weeks of "Oprah's Big Give in Western Oregon" left. So far, the response has been great. But there's still a great need. So I'm hoping you can help.

Can you challenge other people at your job to collect as much new clothes, shoes, books and money as they can? What about your top competitor -- could you issue a good-hearted challenge to them? Or if you're involved in your child's school, what about challenging another school to donate as much as possible?

E-mail me at brandismith@kezi.com with any ideas you might have. We really need to make a push to help all the foster kids in western Oregon, including nearly 1,000 in Lane County, 250 in Douglas County, 400 in Coos County and hundreds more in Benton County.
