Blogging Carnival with a cause
There are a lot of blogging Carnivals out there in the blogosphere, *cough* Carnival of HR *cough*, but I recently learned of a blogging Carnival meant to help promote a worthy cause in Oklahoma. Jessica Miller-Merrell, aka blogging4jobs on Twitter, is putting together a Festival of Hope blogging Carnival to help promote a local charities fund raising event.
Heartline is a charity with the goal of raising awareness of, and prevention of, suicide in Oklahoma. Suicide is a problem that affects people in all walks of life and age. Suicide is a terrible waste of life, potential, and can destroy a family. Please be sure to check out the Carnival tomorrow at the Blogging4jobs site, help spread awareness of the event, and follow the #foh hashtag on twitter for up to date information. And if you happen to live in Oklahoma, please be sure to check out the charity event itself and donate to a worthy cause.
And if you haven’t had the pleasure, I suggest you take the opportunity to chat with Jessica, or at least check out her site. She is doing a lot of great things with HR and social media promotion in Oklahoma and is fun to talk to.
