A Blue Dandelion, an Ancient Armitage, and a “Boy” Artist walked into a bar …. “You’d have thought they’d have seen it.” No, this is not what you’re thinking. Ha!
This is no joke, but rather a lovely way to spReAd even more goodness and kindness throughout the British actor Richard Armitage’s (image right of RA from 2013 LA World Premiere of THDofS, IMDB) fandom by celebrating the kindness we show to others and the kindness that they show to us in a year long world wide 2014 campaign affectionately labeled, SpReAd the Love (STL).
You may also give blood, or make donations of food or money to charities of your choice, or a donation to one of Richard Armitage’s Just Giving charities. The point is to celebrate the giving and kind spirit in all of us.
So please visit these organizers’ web sites to learn more about STL 2014 (Thanks to them for organizing it!):

And when you visit their web sites above, you will also learn about a special matching donation challenge of an anonymous person donating 1 pound for every act of kindness emailed or commented on the Funky Blue Dandelion blog (up to 200 pounds) to one of Richard Armitage’s Just Giving charities
And the SpReAd the Love logo (right) is courtesy of the extremely talented artist Sebastian at the Gisborne’s Boy blog.
The SpReAd the Love campaign is such a lovely giving and caring effort. I hope that you will join us in it this year. Cheers!
P.S. Please comment over at Funky Blue Dandelion (Jazzy’s blog). Thanks!
Thanks, Grati!
