I like solutions like this. I don’t often have “share” money. The kind you can give to family members, friends, organizations, beggars on the street… just because you want to. But I have friends who do (and sometimes I have it too). So something like Change.org is a nice way to simply spend a little time building a page (or finding one that’s already made) and sending it out to your friends – especially the ones that empty their email address book everytime someone forwards them a youtube video – to help local and national causes (which help your family members, friends, organziations, beggars on the street….)
Check them out and spend some time if your don’t have money, and money if you don’t have time. Oh, and check out the Guidestar link you find with the entries. You can take a closer look at where your money goes thru this organization. Do you have a favorite site that lets people affect change? Send me your links, and if they’re not connected to a hate filled site (sorry Mo, my blood pressure is still up), I’ll profile them here.
