i realize this is merely a web site that seems sort of cheerleadery in the efforts of eliminating poverty. but there is an attempt to organize people into local efforts of fighting poverty, which is always a good thing. but the point is, poverty is a very real, very huge problem. and there's no reason for those of us with so much to not make an effort to fight it. so i do recommend signing one's declaration, but only if you're really committed to going out and doing something about it (and i hope you are).

if you live in nashville, please consider this very worthy organization. some very wonderful people make hands on nashville run, and it's a great way of finding out what you can do to help. i've gotten seriously involved in some feeding the homeless projects through hands on nashville, and i'm so glad i did. there are some hands on organizations in other cities too, so just google it if you're interested.
