| | |  JK named President of One Parent Families
Thanks to TLC for this information about JK Rowling being named President of the One Parent Families Charity. Quote:
UK Charity " One Parent Families" has named author J.K. Rowling as their new President. Having been involved with this charity since 2000 and she was named its first Ambassador, One Parent Families is very important to the Harry Potter author. J.K. Rowling says: "I am truly honoured to be made President of One Parent Families, whom I have supported for the last four years. It is gratifying to be a part of a charity which works so hard to support single parents at ground level, while giving them a voice in the national arena." Congratulations Jo! Thanks to everyone who sent this in including JKRfans.com!
Thanks to TLC | |

I'm really glad that she's been doing this. One parent families have it much harder then you think. It's nice that she takes the time to realize that long ago she was in the same position. Even after she has a lot of money.

I was talking to mon pere last night about that bit of news (saw it earlier on MuggleNet), and he thought it was really awesome. So awesome, in fact, that it inspired him to take us to the county soup kitchen and animal shelter this holiday season to do some good deeds for people and animals in our community.
