Every Day Is Christmas Day!: 365 Days Of Giving
The adventures of Thanet-based journalist Illisia Adams as she attempts to "Treat Every Day Like Christmas Day" for three-hundred-and-sixty-five days of the year, from the Christmas of 2016 until the next Christmas. This means volunteering, fundraising, acts of kindness, giving cards and presents to friends and family, and other such "Holiday Spirit" activities. I hope that I will inspire others to have a similar attitude!

Day Two-Hundred-and-Ten (210): Finding Illisia
Hello, every one!
As I discussed in my prior post, due to personal reasons I have been unable to afford to maintain my charity efforts, sadly.
That was a couple of months ago, however, and things have since changed for the better. I am still financially "tight", but £1 per day should be manageable, if I budget for it accordingly. I am also doing more fundraisers! I am feeling more myself again, now. Hence "Finding Illisia".

Charity Begins At Home (aka Sorry!!!)
Hello, readers! I am aware that it has been several months
since my last update, and for this I apologise from the depths of my heart. It
has been a busy few months, personally. I have not forgotten about this Blog,
what it represents, nor three-hundred-and-sixty-five-day mission, but I am, I
confess, failing…

Day Twenty-Four (24): Charity List, Long-Planned Mini-Fundraiser, and Researching
Hello, wonderful people of the world!
I have utterly forgotten to update this Blog, so here is a list of the charities that I have donated £1 to since my last time that I posted a list:

Day Ten (10): A Loss, But For The Greater Good...
We are now in day ten, and I have made the solemn choice to cancel the several Direct Debits I have had on my bank account for many months now for charities.

Day Eight (8): Catch-up!
Hello, readers! I a planning on updating this Blog every day with information about what charity I have donated to on that day and why.
However, due to the fact that I spent every one of my pennies on my good deed that I did on Christmas Eve (which I discuss in my video) I have been unable to do my daily donations. I have £1 in cash, but due to not having been into town, I could not manually donate to a charity shop, either.
Today I have money, however, so today is "catch-up day!". This means that I will be donating £1 to eight charities today, rather than just one.

Day Four (4): The Press Release
Hello, tinterweb! This is Illisia [Adams] with an update...
I have just hit the fifty viewership figure for my video, which I am very happy about but I would really appreciate it if as many of you as possible would "share, share, share!" it with your friends and family, and of course through social media, to really bring the message to as wide an audience as possible and encourage that year-round Christmas spirit!
For Bloggers and journalists, I have written an official Press Release to help publicise the initiative, which you can download directly from my OneDrive. The format is ".doc", created in Microsoft Word using Office 365, which is the most up-to-date software.
Alternatively, you can also download a copy in plain text format (".txt"), and view it in the Blog, below.
Thank you again for your continued support! Remember to Subscribe for more! :-)
