All of us can make “free” donations to charity every day by visiting The Hunger Site and its sister sites.  Once each day, in less than 30 seconds, we can visit these sites and make small contributions to help alleviate hunger, provide free mamograms to low-income women, provide health care for needy children, provide books to promote literacy, preserve rainforest land, and feed animals in shelters.  All we have to do is visit the sites and click the button on each site that say “Click here to give — it’s FREE”.  Corporate sponsors make the donations on a pay per click basis, so we can increase our impact by spreading the word.

The concept behind these sites is fantastic.  It allows us to feel like we’re actively making a positive impact on the world each day, however small, and serves to remind us of how fortunate we are to be in the position of the donor rather than the recipient.  Just as all the parts of our lives are interconnected, so too are we interconnected with the world that surrounds us.  These sites remind us of that, and benefit all of us positively.
