Bonnie, the lovely lady behind Going Home To Roost, was sweet enough to allow me some space on her site to talk about my Dopamine Heart Pin fundraiser for the Parkinson’s Unity Walk.

Okay friends – Let’s get pumped for my 2nd giveaway ever!
I’m excited about this one because:
One of my lucky readers will win their choice of one of my popular Dopamine Heart Ornaments! (Just in time for Valentine’s Day – I know!)
I have mentioned in a previous post that I am collaborating with Team Bettina, who is raising money and awareness for the Parkinson’s Unity Walk by donating 25% of the proceeds from the sale of my Dopamine Heart Pins to the cause.
In people who have Parkinson’s disease, the brain stops making dopamine – An important molecule that helps you move. This is why I have made pins embroidered with the structure of this chemical – To help support Bettina and her team during the Unity Walk!
You can also help support Parkinson’s awareness and research by simply participating in this giveaway! Easy enough, right?
You must do this:
For more chances to win, you can do any or all of the following options (please leave a separate comment for each entry!).
Giveaway ends at 6:00pm ET on January 30th.

I am SO excited to announce that No Mints is teaming up with Team Bettina of the Parkinson’s Unity Walk to help raise Parkinson’s awareness and funds to find a cure!
The Parkinson’s Unity Walk, a grassroots organization, began in 1994 through the dedicated efforts of patients, families, support groups, and friends who were affected by Parkinson’s disease. Their main goal was to raise awareness and funds for research to find a cure for Parkinson’s.
Bettina, whose team raised over $10,000 last year for the event, contacted me at the end of last year and was wondering if I would be interested in collaborating with her team to raise money for the cause – Of course I agreed and we came up with a plan: 25% of each of my Dopamine Heart Pins sold will be donated directly to the Unity Walk.
Why dopamine? Because it helps you move. In people with Parkinson’s disease, a degenerative disorder that affects the central nervous system of the body, the brain stops making it. So I have whipped up a batch of little dopamine molecules to support Bettina and her team!
You can help by purchasing one of my pins here or donating to the cause by clicking here.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to e-mail me at whatnomints@gmail.com and I can put you in touch with Bettina.
And as a little teaser …
I will be hosting a GIVEAWAY next week to help raise Parkinson’s awareness in my own way. It will give you guys an opportunity to spread the word yourselves and to have a chance to win a little handmade felty goodness from me! So stay tuned …
