Have you been racking your brain for the past few weeks to try to think of gift ideas for yourself? My friends and family have been asking for some help. I’m having a hard time carving out the time to just sit and think about what I want for me, which is a bummer because to be honest, it’s kind of fun to window shop and daydream about getting cool new gadgets and gizmos.

But what if you were asked to come up with a Wish For Others? Capital One is posing this question to you, from now through December 23rd. Why are they doing this? Because they believe that by granting wishes made for others, the impact will be absolutely huge. I believe they are really on to something, here. 

I wanted to share my #WishForOthers with you (and with Capital One!) because oh my gosh would I love to see this happen! 

We all have causes that are near and dear to our hearts based on our personal experiences and our personal relationships. Of course I’d be beyond thrilled if you decided to make a donation to the Alzheimer’s Association, but beyond that, I’d love foryou to think about a cause that touches your life in some way. Then enter the #WishForOthers  via Twitter, Instagram, or the Capital One Facebook page. You can also check out  #WishForOthers to see what other amazing ways people are hoping to spread holiday cheer this year. You can get inspired and even get some great ideas about ways you can share your light with the world by brightening someone else’s day. It doesn’t have to be big to be great, friends.
