Who are we?

We’re just peo­ple like you around the world who quite sim­ply believe that we can live bet­ter. That the world doesn’t need to be a dark, unfriendly place. That as cliché as it sounds, lov­ing oth­ers will change the world and that one per­son can make a dif­fer­ence. We don’t think money is half as impor­tant as it sounds and we think that life is so much more. Our main con­trib­u­tors work to main­tain this site giv­ing of their time freely, gen­er­ously, and anony­mously. We’re not here to make money, make a name for our­selves, or gain fol­low­ers. We’ve just grown tired off talk­ing the talk and never walk­ing the walk. We want to help one another and any­one who finds them­selves here to go out and do some­thing worth­while; some­thing good; some­thing bet­ter and be a dif­fer­ence in some­one else’s life. We hope that some­thing here might strike a cord with you and help push you over the edge with us from just talk­ing about doing some­thing to actu­ally doing it; from good inten­tions to good living.

About This Site

Infor­ma­tion, inspi­ra­tion, and an invi­ta­tion to live dif­fer­ent.
That’s our hope for this site; that it pro­vides use­ful infor­ma­tion that can help us take our desire to be bet­ter human beings and turn it into action.
We’ve found that one of the pri­mary hur­dles for us as human beings in the process of try­ing to live bet­ter is sim­ply not hav­ing easy access to the answers to many of our pre­lim­i­nary ques­tions.
What can I do? How do I do it? With this site we are try­ing to answer those two ques­tions as sim­ply and quickly as pos­si­ble to help us all get down to the busi­ness of liv­ing rather than just talk­ing about it and putting it off.

We are com­pil­ing an ongo­ing data­base of dif­fer­ent orga­ni­za­tions through which we can make an imme­di­ate and tan­gi­ble dif­fer­ence in the lives of peo­ple around the world. With each orga­ni­za­tion pro­file there is the oppor­tu­nity for oth­ers to leave com­ments, assess­ments or ques­tions in the com­ments area.

We also believe that being a dif­fer­ence is not about the great accom­plish­ments you do but about how you live. We’re seek­ing to be dif­fer­ent in the small things and the big things.
So, our team also con­tributes ideas for liv­ing bet­ter, inspi­ra­tional sto­ries, edi­to­ri­als, and reports on recent events around the world and how we can help.

We don’t know what effect this site may have. Per­haps it is just for us. But, though we are few, we don’t want to waste what we have and we no longer want to refuse to do what small things we can to be a dif­fer­ence in the world.
