HTB’s readers are one of the most globally connected groups we know. These connections produce knowledge of the disparity in health, education and life expectancy that prevail around the world, and with that knowledge comes responsibility. While we aren’t trying to guilt you into trading your comfortable job for subsistence farming, we’d like to suggest making at least a modest gift to any number of very worthy organizations around the world that channel charitable giving directly and effectively to those who need it most. You can start by checking out Nick Kristof’s recent column in the NY Times. Mr. Kristof is making a career of identifying innovative yet simple models for helping each other. He highlights organizations delivering hope in the form of medical care, literacy, education and dignity for women and children in Afghanistan, Haiti, Congo, Somalia and Cambodia. Take the time to learn more. We’re sure you will be moved to give.
