Thanks for Helping Ann Marie Gardinier Halstead Pick a Charity to Highlight for Her 100th 30Seconds Tip! And the Winner Is... by 30Seconds Mom

30Seconds contributor Ann Marie Gardinier Halstead, who also serves as our Contributor Relations Coordinator, has written 99 tips for 30Seconds! For her 100th tip, she wanted to do something special in honor of her time with 30Seconds as well as our new category, Make a Difference. Ann Marie chose to highlight a non-profit or charitable organization that is making a difference in its local community, the national community or even the global community.

Ann Marie put out the call to our 30Seconds tribe to make nominations, and 12 fantastic organizations were suggested. Then we put it to a vote. The tip received 101 comments, a sure sign that this community is committed to making a difference!

The votes are in, the tribe has spoken! For Ann Marie’s 100th tip she will highlight PANS Research and Advocacy Initiative (PRAI)! Thank you to Gina Pomering for the nomination. Thank you to everyone who nominated a non-profit and to everyone who voted; this was indeed a community effort. Please stay tuned because we have a plan for how to highlight all of these deserving organizations. Thanks to all of you for making a difference.
