How to improve the world even if you're broke

[Lamplighter]

Ariana Huffington was on a PBS program over the weekend, and among other topics she spoke of volunteering people could do.
But the difference was her audience.

She spoke directly to people who were unemployed...
mainly because even after doing all the job-search activities they still have time left over to get involved.
She gave this link to a site with such activities.

I looked it up and immediately found 2 links to activities in the PDX area:
Get Out And Garden: Portland Community Gardens
Natural Area Restoration In Outer Southwest Portland

Then just by entering my Zip code there were pages and pages of more links.

Ariana is just another liberal do-gooder. She does do good stuff.

I thought the list was good. I hadn't thought of donating old paint or shoes or some of the extra supplies in my basement.

Sorry we aren't all as forward thinking as some of you.

You did good Cloud. If for nothing else than reminding us.

Skip the liberal tag. She is a good person. I really like when she joins the staff on Morning Joe.
It almost always leads to a thoughtful discussion.

Class, the Cellar needs a "scarcasm" icon... but then a poke wouldn't be nearly as much fun.
