The difficulty of inspiring others
Nobody emailed me about linking to the One House At A Time organization. It is really hard to get people aboard on something, even if it is good. We could be so busy with our lives that there is time for reading the web not for doing the web.
Anyhow, February’s linkdonating target is Kiva. For me this word is especially nice, because in Finnish it means “nice”. I must say that this non-profit is Kiva indeed. Rules are basically the same as before:
1. Link to Kiva
2. Email me and point me to that link
3. I will link to you
4. I will donate one US dollar for Kiva for your link
5. I will write about your site
The fifth rule is there to further sweeten the pot. So you get to donate one dollar, you get a link and an article about your site. Do good.

Oops, I saw the other post first.
Soooo, here it goes again: I’ll place a link.
Am I the first? No Way.

Yes, you really are the first. Just tell me where the link is and email the page to my address loghomes at loghomescabin

This is a good thing you are doing here. Don’t get discouraged that it is slow to gain momentum. All charitable endeavors and public service projects are always slow to “get legs” unless you happen to know some big time celebrities who will get behind it and twist a few arms to get the exposure needed. It takes time, but is worth the effort. Congratulations.

Thanks for the encouragement. I’ll keep crawling until I get those legs. I’m just keeping my eyes on the goal and one day I’ll arrive there.
