With Mother's Day just a couple of days away, I am reminded of what a special day it is! I am so blessed to have such a wonderful Mom in my life. She is an incredible woman and someone I know will always be there for me. I'm always one that wants to find the perfect card and gift, but sometimes it's hard. What does Mom really want? Well, Western Union has an idea and that's why I was excited to learn more about their "Return the Love" campaign.
Western Union has a new "Return the Love" campaign, centered around celebrating mothers and encouraging loved ones to give them the perfect gift this Mother's Day. It helps to remind all of us the countless acts of love our mom has shown us throughout the years and how Mother's Day is the perfect time to say 'Thank You' by giving her a gift she really loves.
A recent Western Union consumer survey found that daughters and sons of all ages have good intentions when it comes to finding the perfect gift, but 42 percent find it hard to shop for the perfect gift for mom. That's why Western Union's 'Return the Love' campaign is so great. It's designed to encourage consumers to send the gift of cash this Mother's Day. It's an easy gift to give and is sure to be something Mom will love. What Mom couldn't use $50?! They definitely have both the gift giver and the recipient in mind.
As part of this campaign, Western Union has set up a Flickr page where people can share photos of their moms. Each week, Western Union is selecting photos from this gallery to display on their homepage. Definitely check it out if you get the chance!
Win It: Western Union was not only kind enough to send me a $50 Western Union gift card for Mother's Day...they are also giving FIVE very lucky readers a $50 Western Union gift card as well (they can be used ANYWHERE!)!
