ROCK PAPER OR SCISSORS: Rock
I've loved the outdoors since I was a little girl. I wanted to spend my Saturdays cleaning up the beach rather than watching cartoons.
I have been weirdly obsessed with Louisiana and Africa since I was little. In the 5th grade I colored a whole bunch of 8x10 sheets of paper like African flags and hung them all over my bedroom. But I haven't been. Yet.
I have been to Louisiana many times. I've lived and worked there. I've run, laughing, through humid courtyards at midnight, and discovered unbelievable people there. And someday I hope to have a home in New Orleans, so that I can finally spend as much time there as I want!
I have always, always, always had a soft spot in my heart for children. As a kid, any child that was smaller than me was at serious risk of being picked up, cuddled, and cared for all day long if I was around. I've been a camp counselor, an improv leader, and a wicked story teller for kids. Those are some of my best memories. There is nothing cooler than seeing a child's eyes light up because they are happy. Or because they finally feel better. Even if it's just for a moment.
Places and people affect me so much that sometimes a conversation with a stranger can reduce me to tears. And that's why I fight for them. For people. For the places, and the ways of life, that they love.
WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR ME:
Because the Gulf matters. The people matter. A green, clean future for our nation and for our WORLD matters!! And because I'm a craaaazy fun chick. And ... because it doesn't hurt! Just click.
Also, because if you don't, I won't vote for you either, so HA!

Happy February, Crowdrise friend! Thank you for your support, through your donations, votes, advocacy and friendliness. You probably know all about the amazing promos that CR runs. Right now, I think the most awesome is the chance to win an iPad 2. Every time you donate $26, you are entered to win.
Your $26 donation to a Reader to Reader project would help us send 2 boxes full of books to an under-resourced library here in the states, or support special education in the DR, or get a women's school built in Nigeria, or get books to families in transition... there are plenty of choices and who knows, you might get lucky!
Happy reading,
Kat

A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint.... What I began by reading, I must finish by acting. ~Henry David Thoreau
