When SanityFound and I first kicked around this idea for a blog, we decided that we would like to make a difference. Something real and substantial, a contribution not only of ideas and positive thoughts for each other, but of tangible things to be given to others in need.
One of the things we’d like to do, is set up a place where people can find direct giving sources. That is, sources who allow you to give directly to those in need without paying for huge administration costs. Maybe the gift is of time, maybe it is of money, maybe it is of unwanted items.
Many of us would like to direct give to those in need and don’t know how. So I would like to ask everyone to put on your thinking caps and come up with ways or charity sources that you might know of who accepts this.
One of the things I would like to give is my old medicines that are perfectly fine, that I am no longer using for one reason or another. Maybe there is a clinic somewhere who could use them for children with epilepsy. The drugs are very expensive. But how do we get them there?
Reading glasses, pencils, school supplies. Whatever. How many of us have drawers stuffed full of the things and get irritated with the clutter. Its needless hoarding on our parts, when there are children that could be putting them to good use.
If you know websites that you think will help us.. let us know. Id really like all of you to contribute your thoughts, your causes. After all, the point is one world, one soul… right?
