Someone on Care2 had a really good idea. Have a board... pick a VERY desperate organization that helps animals, and each member donates $1 a month to the cause.

Problem is, over 100 people joined the group and only about five are donating. The owner got discouraged and is thinking about closing down the group.

Please go check it out and see if it is something you'd be interested in.

Tell them Koli sent you.

Personal thoughts:

I think it would be better if PARTICIPATING members were allowed to vote on the next month's organization.

I agree with one member who said that in the very least by keeping the group open people learn out about little known organizations they never would have heard of before.

#3: I keep wondering if PT members would be interested in something like that? (Or if Karen and Paul would appreciate having a donation box sent up for them. ...or they could be the group of the month every so often?)
