bulletWorking for Change
bullet"WorkingForChange.com is your online social change network. We've created a web of interconnected resources that allow progressive people to act, give, and shop in accordance with their values. But it's not just a network that links you to ideas, action, and other people who share your goals. It's also a broadcast network that takes advantage of the Internet to disseminate news and information. Think of it as an information ecosystem where everything is linked. A news story is connected to an urgent political action. An online shopping spree offers you the option of making a donation to a social change group. It's just taking common sense and making it cutting edge."
