Change the World

Margaret Mead said "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

You can help save the world by supporting organizations that work to make the world better, and by shopping at responsible merchants with an eco-conscience.

Seed Savers Exchange
Seed Savers Exchange - Seed Savers Exchange is a nonprofit organization that saves and shares the heirloom seeds of our garden heritage, forming a living legacy that can be passed down through generations. When people grow and save seeds, they join an ancient tradition as stewards, nurturing our diverse, fragile, genetic and cultural heritage.

The Box Project - Their mission is to encourage and enrich the lives of families and individuals living in poverty in rural America by establishing meaningful relationships, promoting education, and offering material aid. Right now, in the richest country in the world, 37 million Americans are living in a state of poverty, hunger and hardship. I have personally been a Box Project sponsor for many years, and it has been an amazing experience. It will change your perspective forever.
No Kill Advocacy Center
No Kill Advocacy Center - Animal advocacy group that supports No Kill efforts nationwide to help bring about a No Kill nation. I heard the founder of this site on the radio, and he has the simple, sane perspective that it's not acceptable to kill homeless animals. He helps shelters get in that mind-set, rather than assuming they have no choice.
