Twitter introduced me to Peters Path last month ago, but this online boutique has been active for a lot longer than that. The store uses its online storefront to bring eco-conscious styles to individuals while also raising funds for different charities on a monthly basis. After serving on various mission trips, the owner, Christine Peters, knew that she wanted to do something on an ongoing basis to assist various charities. Originally, she thought about just [...]

Last month, I discovered Polyvore while blog-surfing. The author had all of these great collages of fashion, beauty, celebs, and more. This immediately got my wheels spinning. How could I incorporate the sheer amazingness of Polyvore into my fabulous giving theme? Aha! I’ve decided to upgrade “Tue” Fabulous to my very own collage featured around one items with a charitable focus!    So, today’s item would be those lovely Carlos by Carlos Santana shoes in [...]

This morning on The View, actress Julianne Moore stopped by to talk about the special edition Valentine’s Day cards being developed and sold to benefit Save the Children. So, of course, I had to check out the website and view all the cards for myself. They are sooo freaking cute! And, I’m not a big believer in Valentine’s Day at all. Well, let me take that back. I believe in doing cutesy stuff for my [...]

Tonight’s event is raising money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.  You’ll be asked to make a donation at the door so DON’T be cheap especially since it will be donated to a great cause, and you get [...]

Celebrities deserve some shine for all of the good works that they do. I’m dedicating the first celebrity spotlight to Chris “Ludacris” Bridges for three reasons… 1. He kicked off his “LudaCrismas in Toyland” initiative here in Chicago on Tuesday 2. He has been one of the most consistent philanthropic entertainers. Since 2001, the Ludacris Foundation has donated over $750,000 to nonprofit organizations. 3. He looks TOO sharp in the photo above (taken at a [...]

As expected, there have been numerous toy drives all over the city. This past weekend, both Anna Kournikova and former Chicago Bears player, Jerry Azumah, hosted toy drives for their respective charities. And, this week, there are still more opportunities for you to show up and drop something off for a deserving child! Thurs, 12/18: Latino Toys for Tots Party – This event, hosted by Telemundo anchor Tsi-Tsi-Ki Felix, is a benefit for the Erie [...]

I’ve been doing a LOT of things while out here in DC. I’m talking shopping, sightseeing, volunteering, sleeping, etc. And, I’ve also been eating out every day. So, imagine my delight when I learned that a lot of the restaurants that I’ve been visiting are participating in this week’s Great American Dineout. The weeklong nationwide program kicked off on Sunday the 21st and goes until the 28th! During the Great American Dineout, participating restaurants donate [...]
