With A Little Help From My Friends

Howdy.

Okay, here's my attempt at my first blog post ever. Now, I've never blogged because everyone does it so why saturate the Internet with more. However, this is kind of a once in a lifetime (I hope) situation and I can't ignore it anymore.

I am from the beautiful city called Calgary, AB and as many of you know it was struck by some massive flooding that has damaged infrastructure and the worst part thousands of homes. None of this really felt real until I was able to go out and see some of the damage for myself. First thing is the incredible stench, the river has dragged all sorts of crap downstream and homes with no power were left with rotten food. But the real nauseating part is having to face the reality that most homes near the river are all complete loses, people have lost absolutely everything. Also, many people who live in-land and were affected by the floods will not be covered by insurance and need tons of help. So here I am trying to do something for the city that I Love so much and that has turned me into the woman I am today (I hope good).

So I'm not particularly good at much but I definitely will do whatever for any little donation you can give the red cross to help alberta flood victims. Willing to drink gross stuff, eat bugs, change my picture, wear silly stuff, cheer for a Toronto team. Anything but please help give me back to a city that needs all the help it can get.

Want to help? Hit me up at @Mariia19 tell me what I gotta do for your donation and here's where you can give the money http://www.redcross.ca/donate/donate-online/donate-to-the-alberta-floods 

Thank you so much.
