We love to travel, and want to take a special trip together to celebrate our marriage. We are thinking it will probably be to Croatia in October, but we still haven't decided for sure (there are so many places we want to see together!)

We have been very fortunate in our lives, and want to use this opportunity to share our blessings with others. We already have a house full of belongings, and don't need any gifts, but we know that some of you want to give us something. So, we'd love for you to donate to this Blessings Fund, and we will in turn donate all of the money to three charities that we appreciate because of their their support for marginalized people: the Southern Poverty Law Center, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, and the WV Call to Action for Racial Equality. We're inviting you to make your donation here because we will get a notification about your gift and will know to thank you for it! But if you'd prefer to donate directly to one of these charities or to another charity on our behalf, feel free to do so.
