Strengthen The Good: A Call to Action
A few months ago, in response to the awful brutality of the Nick Berg killing at the hands of terrorists, Alan of The Command Post came up with the idea to counter the awfulness with good ... and Strengthen the Good was born. Michele has posted the call to action for the blogosphere.The first project raised $15,000 for the Susan Tom family. Now, after the devastation from Hurricane Charley, there is a new opportunity to Strengthen the Good.
We are getting many requests at Command Post for how to help people in Florida. I and others are working as you read this to locate a “micro-charity” in the area that fits with the mission of this site: local charities with a personal face, with very little or no overhead, where the story of the organizers and beneficiaries are inspiring, and where $1 can make a difference.
I’m afraid that with Charley, we’ll have many choices.
Please, head on over and see if you can help out. Bookmark the site as they will be adding information on other ways to assist, as well as get a central group or person set up to collect and distribute the aid to hurricane victims. And if you have a blog, Join the Network so you can keep your readers up to date on the latest efforts to Strengthen the Good.
