Writing for Charity Update

In June, KristinaFH, popsrocks, and Sleeper54 challenged Epinions members to contribute all or part of their month's Income Share to a charity of their choice. The participation rate was heartening, so I wanted to summarize here all of the participants and the charities that benefited in June.

KristinaFH and popsrocks pledged support to Easter Seals
sleeper54 pledged support to the Child Life Program at Blank Children's Hospital
ifif1938 pledged support to the Humane Society
abhaille pledged support to AIDS Resource Food Pantry
cmaw63 pledged support to Pets Without Parents
njchicaa pledged support to Ocean County Cat Rescue
ladyconsumer pledged support to her local pet rescue
lilsquibb pledged support to a charity related to research on children's heart defects

jurgrace pledged support to the American Cancer Society

If you're like me and weren't able to participate in June, don't let that stop you from choosing your own month (or months!) and method to give back.

Members have been successful hosting book drives and other charitable ventures on the site. Feel free to post here if you'd like to openly pledge your support for another month or another charity. Links to your cause's home page are welcome.
