Can you believe that for the first time in history, our generation has the opportunity to end extreme poverty, hunger and disease? Join in the Millennium Promise. www.millenniumpromise.org Millennium Promise works with impoverished communities, national and local governments, and partner organizations to implement high-impact programs aimed at transforming lives on the continent and engaging donor nations, corporations, and the general public in the effort.

The Show Me Campaign was created to lift a remote African community from extreme poverty. Along with the Millennium Promise, they are providing clean water, fertilizer for soil, free meals for school children and mosquito nets to help prevent malaria. http://www.showmecampaign.flux.com/overview These people are suffering terribly and even the tiniest donation would make a difference in their lives.

And on a more personal note: My friend Steve Damm is still fighting for his life and he could use your prayers-- or a helping hand if you live in his area. http://checkonsteve.blogspot.com/ If you you are struggling in your life and feeling sorry for yourself then go to Steve's wife's blog. When you read of the suffering this guy has endured as he fights an inoperable brain tumor and still manages to work and nurture his young children you will be humbled to your bones. God bless, Steve.
