Lead Forward – Organization to help India’s Untouchables
Did you know the caste system in India still exists today? I remember learning about in school but never thought much about it until my niece joined the Leadforward organization and told me she was going to help the “Dalit” or the “Untouchables” in southern India. The organization is based on the “teach a man to fish” premise. You know, it is better to teach someone how to catch their own fish as opposed to giving them fish. I wanted to do a post about it because Leadforward is a worthwhile organization and I wanted more people to know about it.

Charity – and What I’m doing to try and help
I don’t give enough to charity
Well, I don’t think I give enough, so first I decided to make a page telling visitors which merchants they could buy products from who donated a portion of their earnings to charity. The trouble is, I didn’t find that many online merchants who had an offer, though there are plenty of charities or non-profit organizations that run online stores. Anyway, you can click here to visit my Online Charity Merchant Page.
