The Giving Hands

I haven’t mentioned that I have signed up for Blog Action Day which will be on October 15th, 2008. The theme for this year’s conversation is “poverty”. Currently, some 4,309 sites have registered to participate, reaching out to some 8,986,766 readers worldwide.

Check out the promo video for this year’s Blog Action Day (it’s a must-see!):

As usual, the organizers have put together a list of general resources and some ideas to get you started and some badges, banners and graphics that you can put on your blog/site.

I have initially planned to organize a month-long blogging campaign on poverty leading to up Blog Action Day, but I was caught up with other commitments on Sept 15th. Plus, I forgot to make an announcement calling for bloggers to join me.

Anyway, I am still going ahead and doing it here, on Giving Hands. I will be writing 2 to 3 posts per week on poverty and if you are also doing it on your blog (you are most welcome to do it here if you wish), do drop me a link and I will publish a list that contains all your posts on October 15th :D

Together, we can make a difference.
