Did you know that according to the 2005 Kintera/Luth Nonprofit Trend Report : "On average, online givers donate in total (both online and offline) more than 50 percent more than those donors who do not give online." My fellow BlogHer co-editor, Beth Kanter , has launched a fundraising campaign using ChipIn. She sits on their board.

First I gave away money, then stuff, then advice, and then my giving became more intangible. Thing is, you can sign petitions, make donations, organize rallies, and spread the word about do-good things all you want, but if you're not being kind to the people around you, are you really a changemaker?

I started blogging in 2003 about nonprofits and social media and started second blog about Cambodia, “Cambodia for Kids” after the arrival of my daughter, Sara and discovering that there was a vibrant community of bloggers in Cambodia.

World Go Vegan Week (October 24-31, 2010) seems like a perfect time to highlight the sixth contributor to my series of guest posts by bloggers talking about how they have fun and do good. The best ways to follow her are via Twitter ( @ElisaC ) and by all the headline feeds found in her BlogHer profile. And I became galvanized.

You don't necessarily see women keynote at technology conferences (well accept for women focused technology conferences like blogher ), but Geoff was trying hard ensure a gender balanced program and succeeded. more like the Berkman Center Thursday evening blogger meetups I used to attend from 2005-2007. This is just a sampling.

I am sitting here amazed that we were able to meet the campaign goal for the Cambodia Bloggers Summit in about week's time. They would match donations $1 up to $2,000 I raised for the project. Have different ways for people to support the campaign, not just money. Photo by Shel Israel. Find creative ways to thank people.

Like Mother Teresa talked about how America was rich in money, but poor in spirit. The place where we get out bamboo in China, they had floods last year so we started donating 20% of our proceeds back to them so they could rebuild their factories. What I do is, I write for several blogs, as she mentioned. We don't use that much wood.
