We are constantly on the go here in Los Angeles - whether we're working hard, working out, or getting our projects off the ground, most of us rarely take some time out of our busy days and nights to give back to the community or the world. Possibly because we don't even know where or how to begin!
There are so many worthy charities and non profit organizations out there that are doing admirable and inspiring things; but how do you find them?
There are many ways you can start, even in a small way. There's Huffington Post's Impact, where you can read about amazing causes, and their Causecast platform that you can use to give to charities of your choosing or learn more about them. There's Tom's Shoes to utilize your spending power for something that's good.
I also recently found This Shirt Helps, which isn't tied to a particular charity, but that gives you the option of choosing the organization of your choice to help out. It's simple as buying a shirt, because every shirt bought from this company goes directly back to the org of your choice.
It simply boils down to this message:
One shirt = one month of education, one year of clean water, one animal saved or three trees planted.
So get started! Shop around the This Shirt Helps site and do something good today.
