Three Times The Impact!

Given the fact that I did gripe today, though about something that needs addressing socially and legally, I thought it would be the right thing to do, to remind people that today, until midnight, you can really make a difference in most of these charities that I support, either directly with my own cash, or by spreading the word and raising funds.

These are my reluctant allies, and none of them are responsible for my opinionated views or for anything I say when dealing with nastiness in the world or around me.


They are however, organizations that I truly believe make a difference in the world, and that without them, the world be much, much worse. Not only that, but for people that in addition to the struggles we have on a daily basis, who are challenged with obstacles that go far beyond our worst troubles, these charities are helping those so challenged. 


At least with their effort, we're moving in a direction towards progress, rather than hindering it by obstructing it.


With many of these charities, your donation dollars are tripled, so you have three times the impact with just a $10 donation, to become $30 donation.


Why not make a difference?

World Veterans Federation
The World Veterans Federation is a humanitarian organisation, a charity and a peace activist movement. The WVF maintains its consultative status with the United Nations since 1951 and was conferred the title of “Peace Messenger” in 1987.


I'd like to point out that it was the incredible Gary Sinese Foundation that brought the issue of Veteran's rights to my attention. I've always had little respect for those who'd forget the great contribution made by those who've risked life and limb to defend those values that so many of us espouse. Perhaps the true measure of one's principles are by that for which they'd risk their life.

"None can speak more eloquently for peace than those who have fought in war."

Ralph Bunche, Nobel Peace Prize 1950

The Edgar Allan Poe Museum
Because Barris told me to put it here. If I didn't, he said he'd walk. Geez. Stardom really gets to some people's heads. Maybe I could kill him and bury his heart beneath the floor boards! Or I could encase him in behind a brick and mortar wall, for shaming my family name of Amantillado! In all truth, there's a good chance that thanks to the works of Edgar Allan Poe, Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain), William Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Jonathan Swift, Mary Wollenstein Shelley, Robert Louis Stevenson, Herbert George Wells, Jules Verne, Dr. Seuss, Stephen King, Clive Barker and Pierre Burton (for The Secret World Of Og and his ground breaking interview of Bruce Lee) that all of us are literate. Literacy is important. Really it is. Literally. It allows us to approach our employer at the end of the week (with a big club) and ask: where my money?! Math important too.
