Back in January, I started donating 5% of the Frolic! sponsor fees to Growing Gardens, a non-profit that fights hunger by teaching people organic vegetable gardening. So far, I've been able to donate a little over $400. It may not seem like a large amount, but I am thrilled this blog could raise a little something for those in need. It couldn't have happened without any of you (readers + sponsors), so thank you!
P.S. I am closing the survey today so please take it if you haven't already. I've loved the nice comments and insightful feedback.
that donation is awesome! and congrats to you for building this little blog into a business that can raise that kind of money.
thats awesome. and i adore this photo!
I think it’s great that a portion of your proceeds goes to charity. It makes me want to visit your sponsors that much more!
How exciting! That’s so sweet of you to donate to them.
i think $400 is a lot of money and very thoughtful of you to do, especially these days.
I think $400 is a lot if that’s 5% of your ad fees! I think it’s a great idea for you to donate and it’s great you can make a living off this blog. I’m sure they are thrilled with $400!
How lovely, Chelsea! And for such a great cause. The survey is a great idea as well — may need to do something similar at some point — feel as if am coming to a little blog-life crisis 🙂
Hope you’re having a wonderful week,

What a wonderful thing to do. Every bit helps. Congratulations.
Oh what an absolutely wonderful thing to do! You set such a good example for us all. Thank you!
Hope you are enjoying the 4th!

On behalf of Growing Gardens, thank you! For every $600 we raise (with the help of businesses like Frolic!, community members and foundations), we can install a garden and support the gardener for 3 years as they learn to grow food organically at home. We very much appreciate your support.
Love those red boots!
And as a fundraiser for a library (who is used to getting nasty “no!” responses these days), $400 is a lot to a small non-profit and I’m sure it means so much to them!
That is awesome.
