[bksvol-discuss] Re: OT: The Hunger Site



Hey, and there turns out to be one part of this thread that isn't off topic. One of this site's partners is the literacy site. It gives books to kids, now how cool is that? Definitely something for us Bookshare users to consider. A lot of us know what it was like at some point not being able to access books. This is just one more way to share what we all love... reading. www.theliteracysite.com.

Thanks Carrie!

Sorry this is off-topic, but in case anyone is unfamiliar with the Hunger
Site, I think that this is the appropriate season to learn about it.

Want to support 6 good causes with a few clicks of your mouse?  You can do
so by going to the Hunger Site - http://www.thehungersite.com/ - and
clicking on the tabs at the top of the screen.  Your clicks (combined with
the usual 50,000 other daily clicks) will provide:

-free food for the hungry (approx 85,000 cups per day)
-free mammograms for underprivileged women (approx 5 mammograms per day)
-free health care for children (approx 850 children per day)
-free books for children (approx 450 books per day)
-protection for rainforests (approx 500,000 sq ft per day)
-free food to animals in shelters (approx 50,000 bowls of food per day)

It's the season of giving.  Please click once a day, every day.

Thanks!  Carrie
