With Christmas just around the corner, I want to encourage readers of this humble blog both regular and accidental to find ways to give to those who need help.
So below, I'll mention two groups I've just donated to.
Spirit of America: Friends of Iraq Blogger Challenge
Check out the Spirit of America: Friends of Iraq Blogger Challenge.
They are raising money to support various projects in Iraq. That country has been under decades of oppression and now that it is on the verge of breathing free it is being hit by violence from the old forces that used to be in power. It is an indication of their evil that they would rather burn 1/2 a house down than allow the long suffering people to rebuild.
I decided to donate with the Bear Flag League which is a California blog team.
I was tempted to join Hugh Hewitt's team, Northern Alliance of Blogs, because I occasionally listen to his show. But I am not a Minnesota person and have only been to Minn-e-so-cold just once.
The TTLB Eco Team was a possibility as I do occasionally check my standing in the TTLB Blog Ecosystem. This blog is in the "Flippery Fish" status.
Hope you consider donating to this cause or to some other one.
Young Life
Another cause I gave to is Young Life.
Specifically, I gave to Young Life Hollywood.
There are few things more important than helping kids grow into good people. Yet, we all know how much tougher it is these days especially in the mean streets of a big city. Go to the web page and see if there is one in your community that you can support.
