Tango Card: The Perfect Solution to Mother’s Day Gift Giving (w. $100 GC giveaway!)

May 3, 2011 By Leticia

Congratulations to Catherine who was lucky #49 and will be receiving a $100 Tango Card!


If you are racking your brain trying to think of the perfect gift for Mother’s Day, let mom pick it out herself using the best gift card yet – The Tango Card!  If you haven’t heard of The Tango Card, it’s a versatile gift card where the recipient can select from top-name brands, donate to charity, or even redeem for cash – making it the perfect gift. 
 
Tango Card works with premiere retailers such as Amazon, SpaFinder, Zappos, Pottery Barn, and Gap and allows recipients to receive the balance in cash or donate it to non-profits.  Habitat for Humanity, National Park Foundation, USO, and Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health are just some of the organizations that Tango Card works with.
I also love that Tango Card makes it easy to manage gift cards on the go thanks to their free mobile app.  The app allows recipients to gift card balances in one place and use gift cards from your mobile in-store or online.  This is especially useful because in the case of a misplaced card, your Tango Card balances will always be accessible through the app.  Tango also provides email alerts via Tango Meter to remind you to use your cards in case they are unused for too long.
For critics who say that gift cards are impersonal, Tango Card offers a couple of different ways to make them personal for the recipient:
  • Create a Tiny Prints personalized greeting card and have a Tango Card printed right inside! 
  • Pair a delicious, fair trade and organic chocolate bar from Theo with a versatile Tango Card presented in a beautifully wrapped box. 
GIVEAWAY: Enter to win a $100 Tango Card in time for Mother’s Day!
TO ENTER: Visit TangoCard.com and leave a comment sharing how you would spend your $100!  Comments must include an email address or Twitter handle to be valid.

    I would use the $100 to buy gift cards to amazon. That way my mom could buy some of the kitchen utensils she’s been wanting to get.

Today we’re celebrating National Rescue Dog Day Today we’re celebrating National Rescue Dog Day because we’re so glad Goldie and Murphy are part of our family! 🐶 We gave Goldie her forever home when she was 6 months old. She had been given up by her original family because she was just too much for them. She was an enthusiastic pup who loved to jump straight up in the air when she got excited and she used to hop the fence in the mornings to go visit her best dog friend, Katy, over our back fence. She still jumps from standing when she sees a deer, meets a favorite dog friend, or gets a visit from @lisatasch but now at age 5, she’s more calm and forever faithful. 🦮We met Murphy and his 9 brothers and sisters just days after he was born although we didn’t know he would be the puppy we’d claim as ours. Murphy has that puppy energy but in his quiet moments is a total love bug. He hogs the free space in our king bed (he even has his own pillow!) and loves nothing more than to press his body into me or lie directly on me. 🐾 Goldie and Murphy came to us through @labrescuelrcp and we couldn’t be happier that they’re part of our family! ❤️ #rescuedogday #labrescue #labrador #adoptdontshop
After 3 days at St. Jude Children’s Research Hos After 3 days at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, I’m leaving Memphis so very grateful to be able to support St. Jude’s mission of working to end childhood cancer. ❤️ Spending time connecting, brainstorming, and absorbing the wisdom of fellow Hero Ambassadors from around the country was inspiring because the work we do fundraising through our endurance events helps St. Jude do the incredible work they do to ensure families never receive a bill for their child’s treatment, housing, travel, or food and continue important research that will continue to reduce rates of pediatric cancer and other childhood diseases. I am so looking forward to running in Memphis again this December! 🎉 If you’ve ever thought of running a race that does so much good in the world, join me! I’d love to have you come to Memphis and run with me! Or you can always donate through the fundraising link in my bio. ❤️ #stjude #stjudeheroes #memphis #stjudedmv

When we bought our house 24 years ago, it came wit When we bought our house 24 years ago, it came with many things we didn’t love like rotted porch boards, 1 bathroom, and peeling paint (inside and out!) but it also came with things we did love like old, mature trees, crazy shaped boxwood bushes, and these spectacular peonies! 🌸 Every year when they bloom I’m so glad that these beauties conveyed with the purchase of our house and I’m glad we rebuilt our porch so we can step out our front door to admire them in their glory! 🩷#peonies #peonyseason #garden #blooms #spring
As a teacher and parent, I am well aware of the me As a teacher and parent, I am well aware of the mental health challenges our youth face and am really pleased to share that over the weekend I became certified in Youth Mental Health First Aid through the National Council for Mental Wellbeing! 🎉 I’ve always worked to build relationships with the young people in my life- whether my kids’ friends or students- and this certification has made me more mindful of the signs and symptoms of mental health challenges so I can have important and supportive conversations when symptoms first start to appear. 🗣️A big component of the training also included developing a self-care plan which is critical when supporting others. 💕 I’m so grateful to have taken this certification for free through the University of Maryland whose blended learning format (2 hours of self paced online work + 5 hour instructor led class over Zoom) was fantastic! 💻 The teacher in me really applauds the course design and I’m glad to join the 3 million+ in the U.S. certified in Youth Mental Health First Aid. 🏥 If this is something you’re interested in doing, University of Maryland has free courses on Saturdays or Sundays from 10-4pm between June-October. Swipe ⬅️ for more information, including a QR code with more information and a survey to take as part of the sign up process. And if you have any questions- leave a comment or DM me. I’m happy to help you get certified too! ❤️ #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthfirstaid #youthmentalhealth #mentalhealthawarenessmonth
