Spirit Jump is a non-profit that does something so wonderful that I can't even read the words spirit jump without smiling. I met these amazing women last year when I was in Las Vegas for Blogworld. They were working a really nice looking booth -- with great swag -- and when I walked up to them I noticed that they were wearing these very cool cancer t-shirts. So, of course, I wanted one. (isn't that why people go to conferences, to gather all sorts of things that they otherwise would not know about?) During our conversation about Spirit Jump, who they were, what they did and how they made it to Blog World... I found myself totally falling in love with their generous spirit and desire to help other cancer patients.
So... what do they do?
Spirit Jump sends hope and love to people who are suffering from cancer. From their blog:
