Taylor Haugen Foundation-Football Cause

Photo by THF

New awesome cause to get involved with. My mother told me about this story she found in her Guideposts magazine. This high school boy had died while playing football. If you read my last post about Football you know that I very much enjoy it, okay that's an understatement. But anyways. My attention was completely gotten. So I inquired, how in the world did he die. I know that football is not the like table tennis in how safe it is, but it has come a long way from the leather wraps they used for helmets. She told me that the boy was hit in his abdomen and lacerated his liver and they could not fix it, so he died. WOW.

So the parents heard about this compression shirt that could have protected their son's midsection and also could have prevented his death. They have started a foundation in their sons name. Taylor Haugen Foundation.



This Evoshield shirt is the shirt they are trying to get into all high school football teams, so that this might not happen to other boys. High school is far too young to be losing a child while playing a game. If you would like to join in seeing this dream become a reality for these parents that have found a solution to a problem that should have already been in play please click on the foundation link to join in the cause.

I have found the headband that my head loves.

If you love a good headband that doesn't move and you want to support a great cause then Banded is for you. My friend gave me an awesome gift right before school started and it has saved many a bad hairdo. Each band they sell gives three meals to a child in Uganda.

They have wide bands, skinny, and one inch bands. They also have hair ties. They have velvet underneath them to help them from sliding back on your head. You know the headbands that you constantly have to readjust, these do not require so much maintenance to keep them in place.

Here is a sample of what they look like. There are many styles to choose from and they are very reasonably priced. from $10-13. I am already looking into buying more. So if you want to save that hairdo and also help a great cause head over to banded2gether and make a purchase.
