A Hand Up, Not a Handout

I heard about a pretty ambitious effort through Twitter today, one that I felt compelled to participate in.  I’m not sure what struck me about it – though I suppose the name is provocative enough to tempt one into wanting to learn a little more.

The Global Hope Network is asking for help in their 48 hour quest to change the life of a Boy Without Arms, and the town where he lives.  Please visit the site http://boywithoutarms.org/, read about their plan and decide if it’s something you’d like to contribute to.

There are thousands of people in need right here “at home” and around the world.  This was just one opportunity.  Just keep your eyes and ears open, and if you want, help out when you can.  Every little bit helps.
