Save a Life before Lunch

Date May 8, 2008

Remember that XBOX/PS3 game you bought last week for 60 bucks?  Or the $100 you dropped at a bar tap a few weeks ago?  Well how about you donate some money to the unfolding catastrophe in Myanmar?

Here are ways to help:

  1. Blog about it and spread the word - if each one of you blogs about it, the network effect could be huge.
  2. Donate some money to a reputable organization, such as:
    1. unicef
    2. American Red Cross
    3. World Food Programme
    4. AmeriCares
    5. Relief International
  3. Lear more
    1. CNN Coverage
    2. BBC Coverage

Over 100,000 people may die, that’s a HUNDRED THOUSANDS - link.

Remember “The road to hell is paved with good intentions”.
