Flickr Photo from Avylavitra Several weeks ago I wrote a post on BlogHer about Foko Madagascar and Joan Razafimharo , an amazing blogger, social change activist, and woman working in Madagascar and other parts of the world. I've been corresponding with the people at SOS Village Madagascar (for the next blogathon) and I know they'll appreciate the visibility and donation you did with this video. Once again, Madagascar is reeling.

I've been corresponding with the people at SOS Village Madagascar (for the next blogathon) and I know they'll appreciate the visibility and donation you did with this video. Harry's last green tip introduced the Charity Contest that allowed readers to submit a comment that included a suggestion about how to save energy or be green and the name of a charity. The winner would be the topic of Harry's video and we'd donate $20 the winner's choice of charity.

In partnership with Orange France and Emmaus International, Clic Vert has developed electronics recycling and refurbishment workshops in Burkina Faso, Benin, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Mali, Niger, Madagascar, and Togo to organize the collection and repair of used mobile phones. There are very few charities I've come across that are as wide-ranging in their tech-for-good work as our French TechSoup Global partner, Ateliers du Bocage (ADB).

Have Fun - Do Good

OCTOBER 3, 2008

The child sex slave in Cambodia or the cyclone victim in Madagascar doesn’t have time for us to wordsmith our mission statements or waste time with lackluster fundraising efforts. I'm doing a new consulting gig for Social Actions as their, "Community Interpreter." One of my tasks is to help them rewrite the text on their website.

Have Fun - Do Good

MAY 17, 2006

The child sex slave in Cambodia or the cyclone victim in Madagascar doesn’t have time for us to wordsmith our mission statements or waste time with lackluster fundraising efforts. A few weeks ago Katya Andresen sent me a review copy of her new book, Robin Hood Marketing: Stealing Corporate Savvy to Sell Just Causes. I enjoyed the book so much I asked her if I could interview her about her work at Network for Good, her book and being a social marketer.

Museum 2.0

OCTOBER 26, 2010

The makers ranged from Eepy Bird doing their Mentos and Coke crowd pleaser to a really loud and terrifying ramjet powered ride by the Brooklyn-based Madagascar Institute (whose motto is “Safety Third”). We had already been moving toward more open-ended, design-based exhibit and program experiences, but this lit one of Madagascar Institute’s jet rockets under that process. I’ve long been interested in the intersection between maker culture and museums.
