About Just Yappin':
On Saturday, February 6, 2010 at 6am Eastern Standard Time, I will begin a 24-hour blogathon to raise money for the Angela Shelton Foundation. YOU CAN DONATE by visiting http://www.firstgiving.com/angel_meggs
The purpose of the Angela Shelton Foundation is to inspire and empower all survivors of abuse to heal and lead joyful lives. The Foundation runs www.survivormanual.com and provides assistance to worldwide organizations and projects in the arts and media that share their mission of inspiring, empowering and aiding all survivors of sexual abuse and domestic violence.
Mackenzie Phillips' decision to reveal details about her traumatic experiences inspired me to speak out and share my own story. An "accidental advocate" for victims and survivors of abuse and trauma, I am sharing information to educate and empower other survivors to heal and experience joy in their everyday lives. I am a proud member and supporter of Angela Shelton's Army of Angels, a grassroots effort to share Angela Shelton's work, move forward in life, and help others do the same.
