SolarAid--An Organization Fighting Both Poverty & Climate Change
SolarAid is an organization to help fight poverty and climate change. I have to admit I saw the ad on another blog (http://yetanotherpics.blogspot.com/) and decided to check it out. This organization is bringing clean renewable energy to the poorest people in the world.
According to their website there are over 2 billion people in the world living without electricity. This website has some interesting facts like the earth receives more energy from the sun in just one hour than the world uses in a whole year.
The organization officially started in 2006, but the ideas go back 8 years ago by Dr Jeremy Leggett.
If you would like to know the complete history, how to donate, the projects they are working on, et cetera click on the link below.

The Charity Guide--Find Charities In Your Area
I have been looking for ways to find out about charities in my area and I came across this website where you can find charities all across the nation. How cool is that!!!
This is a non-profit website that was designed to help to inform and educate people on various charities.
I originally was going just for the Women's Resource Center and came across this website for the whole nation; so, of course I had to let everyone know.
If you live in the area and have items or cash to donate please let them know. If you are not sure if you have something they can use please call them and ask them what they need. That would probably be better anyway to call first in case they have too many of one type of item and not enough of something else. When I was taking a speech class we actually did a presentation on the Women's Resource Center and learned how hard it is sometimes to help abused women and children.
It is still hard to believe that in this country at this time in history that men and women think that it is still okay to be abusive towards others. It is even harder to believe that people still put up with it. Just think how much better this world would be if we all taught that it is not okay to abuse others and did something to help when we see it.
Just something to think about the next time you get angry or do not want to get involved. Even a little help is better than no help. People need to know that someone out here cares about what happens to them.

Breast Cancer site--click to help underprivileged women
I received an e-mail about this from my sister-in-law a few minutes ago
and I checked it out and it is legitimate.
So, if you are interested please check it out.
A favour to ask, it only takes a minute....
Please tell ten friends to tell ten today!
The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman.
It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on 'donating a mammogram' for free (pink window in the middle).
This doesn't cost you a thing.
Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.
Here's the web site!
Pass it along to people you know.
