I included a link to your post, too. <BR/><BR/>Thank for introducing me to Seva. This year my goal is to send ecards and donations instead of sending physical cards. I've been trimming my card list the last few years...stopping altogether is going to be really hard.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-25656308867391740272008-10-15T12:31:00.000-07:002008-10-15T12:31:00.000-07:00Thanks for bringing up Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF. ...Thanks for bringing up Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF. It's such a great way to get kids involved in charitable giving. I also like One Warm Coat.<BR/><BR/>I'd also like to put in a shameless plug for <A HREF="http://kiva.org" REL="nofollow">Kiva</A>, the organization I promoted on my blog today. It allows individuals to contribute to short-term micro-loans to entrepreneurs who want to start small businesses -- everything from buying two pigs to start a pig breeding business, to buying a loom for weaving. It's quite inspiring to see how hard people are willing to work to improve their living conditions and to realize how little it takes to help them do so.Cynthia Friedlobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12678323220024869277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-30355014481857361672008-10-15T04:34:00.000-07:002008-10-15T04:34:00.000-07:00I love this Idea!!Need brought to Brazil!!We do DE...I love this Idea!!<BR/>Need brought to Brazil!!<BR/>We do DECLUTTER and do steps too, but we give the donations for churchs or fondations!!<BR/><BR/>Bye!!<BR/><BR/>Good Bless all!!!<BR/><BR/>RôRoseli Gomeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06999388508927033322noreply@blogger.com
