[CLOSED] KINDNESS ISN'T CANCELED: $50 PayPal Giveaway

visa gift card giveaway

I know it's been a while since I updated my blog – and there have been a lot of changes in the world since I last posted. Most of us have had to make major adjustments in our lives due to the spread of COVID-19. In addition to the health threat posed by the virus itself (which is scary enough), many people have lost their jobs or their businesses may be hanging in the balance. We have to separate ourselves from our loved ones, put off vacations, and be careful about every move we make. Simply put, there's a lot that's uncertain right now. 

But there's one thing I do know: that kindness isn't canceled. Although I'm very anxious about the state of the world and feel overwhelmed with all of these new changes, I'm simultaneously inspired by those I love and by perfect strangers. While this pandemic has certainly brought out some of the worst in people, it's also highlighted some of the best of humanity.

I know it isn't much, but I wanted to find a way to do something nice for one of you in a way that's safe. So I'm hosting a little giveaway for a $50 to be paid via PayPal. I wish I could swing a higher amount, but I hope it will provide a little relief or bring a smile to someone's face! Here's what you need to know.

$50 PayPal Giveaway Rules

One (1) follower will receive a $50 friends and family payment via PayPal. Enter the giveaway through the Rafflecopter widget below and follow all instructions to be eligible.

The winner must respond within 48 hours or a new winner will be chosen. This giveaway is not sponsored or endorsed by PayPal. Thanks for entering and best of luck!
