Hello everyone and welcome to my 5th Annual Ho Ho
Ho Harlequin Holiday Extravaganza. This year I’d like to start by saying Happy Holidays and thank
you to all my readers and blogger friends who make me laugh, make me cry and
keep it real while giving me inspiration.
For the next two weeks there will be giveaways, recipes,
holiday messages and a lot of holiday fun. Some giveaways are only US and some
are open internationally so there’s something for everyone.
I’d also like to showcase my main sponsor of the holiday
blog bash and the publisher it’s named for, Harlequin. You’ll learn all about
Harlequin the company at the end of the bash but today I want to tell you about
the philanthropic side of the publisher that makes the world go round and their
More Than Words program.
So welcome again to day one of my holiday blog bash
Up tomorrow is Sarah Morgan with a holiday message and a #Giveaway open internationally

About
Help us bring awareness to the causes
that matter most to women, empowering women to make a difference in the lives
of others!
Somewhere right now, a woman’s compassion is
improving the quality of life in her community—not only for herself but for
those she cares about most.
Each act of kindness, each word of support, is
evidence that heroines do exist, and Harlequin wants to share their stories!
For over a decade now, we have solicited the public
to nominate women who have made extraordinary contributions to their
communities. This year, the More Than Words program will recognize three women
nominated by Harlequin authors. An internal judging committee will narrow the
field down to five of the outstanding women nominated by our authors and invite
the public to vote for their favorite heroine. Winners will receive a $15,000
donation to her chosen. With your support, we aim to turn awareness into action
and mobilize others to become engaged and make a difference in their community.
Visit the rules for more information about the 2016
More Than Words contest.
Mission and Objectives
The Harlequin More Than Words program aims to
enhance the well-being of women. Our goals are to:
· Raise awareness about worthy causes
that are of concern to women
· Provide financial assistance to these
important charities
· Engage employees, authors, and
readers and the general public in worthy causes and provide opportunities for
them to make a difference
