Do something

The power of many

People say to me all the time, “I can’t do anything about it.” Guess what? That is nonsense. You can and we must. Think about the power of many. If one person gives just ten dollars … not even the cost of a steak or a good bottle of liquor … that’s just ten dollars. But if ten people do it, that’s $100. If 100 people donate $10, that’s $1000.00. If a thousand people do it, that’s $10,000.00. And if ten thousand people donate, that’s $100,000.00. A million people — a small number by the world’s standard today — equals $10,000,000.00. Check the math on $20 — remember 4th grade math? It doubles all those numbers. That’s the power of many. Just DO something … and speak up to the best of your ability. Add your voice even in small ways. It counts for something, ESPECIALLY in your heart.

Here is a short list of donation targets that I personally recommend AND give to … regularly. Add your suggestions in the comments. The world won’t change unless WE change it.
