Monday Morning Mojo

Global Giving

Every day this year I am going to give $10 to a different cause, using the GlobalGiving.org website. It's a self-led journey of transformation I dreamed up while spending the weekend in NYC with my son.

I started yesterday. These are the two projects I have donated to so far:

1. 1,000 seedlings for the Brazilian rainforest.
Not only good for the forest but also the muriqui, masked titi monkeys, howler monkeys, ocelots, and margays that live there.

2. Dogs for Vets
Helping war veterans heal with the help of shelter dogs, saving the lives of canines while providing relief to post traumatic stress disorder.

We're all connected, right? I figure this is a way to transform my consciousness while helping 365 projects, touching all points on the globe, and providing a small but tangible contribution to human rights, the environment, girls' education, microfinance, poverty alleviation, and more.

Every day I will publish the cause I help on my FaceBook page with a link in case any of my 388 friends want to join me. Since 2002 322,746 donors have given $84,924,805 to 7,858 projects on Global Giving. Check it out.

What kind of self-designed journey are you on? Write me and tell me and I'll post some of what I receive in a future Mojo.

With a highest possible score of 70, Global Giving scored 64.38 on Financials and 70 on Accountability & Transparency.
