Today I got an email from Care. (What a truly beautiful domain name, isn't it?) I can't remember when and how I first touched this website. But, yes, I still remember Care.Org and I think I must have given my email to them when I applied for a volunteer work. Did I? Here's the email:
Dear Michael,
Every day of the year, CARE helps empower women and families around the world in the fight against global poverty. We help girls exercise their right to education. We help women start their own businesses and generate income for their families. We work with mothers so they stay healthy and their children grow up strong.
Women are transforming their lives, their families and their communities. And it's possible because of ongoing support from friends like you.
Real change doesn't happen overnight. Our work attacking poverty head-on requires a long-term commitment. That is why I would like to ask you to join CARE's Empowerment Circle today and commit to making a monthly gift of $10, $25 or $50. Your support is a solid investment in a better future for all.
We want you to know how much your commitment means to us. As a part of CARE's Empowerment Circle, you can look forward to these benefits:
* Our engaging I Am Powerful magazine, issued four times a year
* The chance to join conference calls with CARE President Dr. Helene Gayle
* Annual gifts from CARE such as a calendar, book or scarf
* Fewer mail solicitations — saving money for CARE and helping the environment
* Peace of mind knowing that, with your ongoing support, CARE is efficient and effective
It's easy to sign up! Simply choose how much you would like to give and how often. Give your credit or debit card only once — then, your giving happens automatically! (emphasis mine) Just visit our Web site to adjust your gift at any time.
I would really love to support non-profit organizations, but not this time. To be honest, I am living on a shoestring budget. This month I need to renew at least 20 domains. I bought them last year and until now I haven't developed the sites. I just parked the domains in Lunarpages and Hosgator.
When will I become rich so that I can just send a thousand-dollar check to organizations such as Care.Org?
When Will I Become A Millionaire?
