New Job...check:

I have missed all of you and a lot has happened in the last month and I feel like I have been neglecting my blog community, but I am finally getting back to the groove of things and you will be hearing more from me. So as an update I have started a new job as a HR Manager which is super exciting. Within a month I applied, interviewed, and was hired to my new job. I had gotten bored at my previous job and was ready for a challenge, but I wasn't completely prepared on the fast track God had for that plan!! I am thankful that God saw it best to answer my wishes! A lot of learning and training going on, but so far I love it! Everything about it...the people, the job description, the environment, just EVERYTHING!

The walk was a great success! Super Duper Cold and in true ATL fashion in one day we we went from nice cool weather to 30 degrees and below with no sun! We had an all time record of 30 walkers and I am truly grateful to have all of the support that my friends and family give me! I couldn't ask for more blessing in my life. This was my first time officially becoming a team in honor of my mother. I have started a Walker Blog Bev's BeLoved so that we can expand and walk in both S. Fla and Atlanta...soon to come. Looking forward to the future and ready for next year. We will be taking donations year round and trying to do some give-a-ways along the way...Stay Tuned!! We had great visitors including my blog counterpart Mrs. D-DuBois which made me smile more than she even knows... I couldn't have made it without her!

Just Us Girls Inc = JUGS...check

I joined a mentorship organization in February and now I am the Program Coordinator for the organization. This organization has really helped me to feel whole again. The opportunity to give back to the community is very much a part of me. With this organization I have been able to mentor a young girl in middle school and keep my self rooted in the community. I have met some great women whom I can tell will become lifelong friends and I look forward to it. The organization is looking for dedicated women  in the Atlanta area ready to commit at least a year of their time. For more info visit the Just Us Girls Mentor Corner

That was a lot! Blessed and Highly favored!
'Til we blog again!!

OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH

We are destined 2... Make a difference!! Some of you may know that I am an avid supporter of finding a cure for BREAST CANCER!! Inspired by the fight that I personally witnessed for 10 years of my life. I watched my mother fight for her life, and even though she did not win the war she definitely gave breast cancer all the fight that she had. Since then I have seen numerous family and friends lose their battle against breast cancer. Some have survived and are still fighting through remission, chemotherapy, radiation, loss of hair, loss of breast and still they fight. With me being at such a high risk for breast cancer  myself I think it is very pertinent for me to continue to help with the fight. That being said I wanted to share many ways that you all can help with the fight while getting great Fabulous things for yourself.

Susan G. Komen has been doing a great job of getting great establishments and sponsorships. Here are a few:

Susan G. Komen recently paired up with Old Navy for the iPromise Graphic Tees

Old Navy iPromise Graphic Tees

The iPromise shirts are really cute and relatively priced. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to breast cancer research.

Susan G. Komen with Forever 21

Forever 21 has promised that 10% of the proceeds for each Pink is Courage purchase goes to Susan G. Komen fight for the cure. Items as cheap as $10

Lady Footlocker has paired up with Making Strides Campaign of the American Cancer Society and has promised proceeds to the American Cancer Society's fight against breast cancer.

WAD2 will be joining in the fight and walking for a cause with our team Bev's BeLoVed where you can donate to our cause all proceeds will go towards Breast Cancer Awareness. We will be walking at the American Cancer Society Atlanta Making Strides Walk !! 

You don't have to walk to make a difference!! Just know that every dollar counts!!
