Blog Action Day: Ending Poverty

Did you know that 1.3 billion people live on less than $1 a day?

This post is inspired by Georganna Hancock at A Writer’s Edge. Blog Action Day 2008 is meant to raise awareness and initiate action on the topic of poverty. For my part, I’d like to list a few charities/organizations that are associated with this issue for our “newsworthy charities” section. Use them for research and write an article about them, or just read up and see what you can do to contribute:

  1. Just Give
  2. Catholic Charities
  3. The ONE Campaign
  4. YUGA
  5. Global Issues
  6. World Bank
  7. End Poverty Blog
  8. Oxfam International

Cool Blog: A Writer’s Edge

Georganna Hancock is the voice behind A Writer’s Edge, a blog I stumbled upon earlier today. It is a refreshing change from some of the others that I’ve seen lately. She has filled it with literate posts of just the right length and tone. It caught my eye and I stayed a while…

It is pretty rare that a writer can lure me in. I tire of the typical rants and raves out there looking for an audience. Hancock manages to air her feelings without going too far, along with providing interesting posts that are delivered with what I consider to be a lovely attitude. I’ll be back to visit this blog again…
