Nomadic Musings

  I am sure everyone has the holidays on their minds, tis that time of year. I was looking through a magazine called the Vegetarian Times, and they have an article on some good groups to donate money to. So I looked at a few, and I thought I would share some in here, since it is the season of giving.

http://www.sustainableharvest.org/  Provides farmers in Central America with alternatives to slash and burn agriculture. Donations help to teach the farmers how to farm sustainably and buys seeds.

http://www.farmshare.org/  Recovers, sorts, packages and delivers nutritional food to those in need.

http://www.growinggardens.org  Focused on creating a sustainable community.

http://www.wasatchgardens.org/  Another one trying to provide healthy organic produce to the population, and to teach urban youth about responsibility, cooperation and ecological awareness.

http://www.dghonline.org/  Dedicated to improve health and foster other human rights for those most in need.

http://www.foodlifeline.org/  A non profit food distribution center in Western Washington. Providing more nutritious food to hungry low income people.

http://www.breadandjams.org/  Provides help for the homeless through food, health care, and help. They provide dinner each sunday for the homeless with live music for entertainment. Thus the jams part of bread and jams.

http://www.plenty.org/  Helping those in need through many programs.

http://ecologyfund.com/  Making a difference in nature!

  Well this is just a few of the many groups out there trying to make a difference. Perhaps one of them will move you enough that you feel you want to help them in your own unique way. Even though at the moment I dont have any money to donate, I love to look through these pages, they are a great inspiration to me, and it warms my heart to know that there are people out there trying to make a difference in their own way. Keep up the great work everyone!
