The invention of the steam engine has turned an ancient way of life. And it is far not to all inhabitants of valleys there was on customs a new epoch with its machines… Many people have for ever refused the blessings of a technical civilization, having returned to an old life in harmony with the nature and magic of four elements.
So enmity between supporters of a science has begun and those who has remained is true magics. And while between them internal conflicts inflamed, dark legions have intruded in kingdoms to subordinate to themselves forces of four elements.

Former employees of GlobalGiving know that they never really leave the GG family. And of course, this means that their children are immediately issued a GlobalGiving account and building ID card. In May we had a visit from Alumni baby number one - Willa. Willa is the progeny of our former Chief Program Officer, Eli Stefanski (now Executive Director of the Maine Women’s Fund) and her husband Scott. Mom, Dad and young Willa were the hit of the office….how could they not be, when you look at that face, those eyes.

In the next couple of months, two more alumni babies are anticipated - so watch this blog for news of their arrivals. Tim/Allison - Willa has set a high bar.

I came across this article on the New York Times and thought it was an interesting approach to giving - along the same line as knowing your donors and getting involved with things about which they are already passionate.

Product (RED) is developing a digital music sservice, which is scheduled to launch in the fall.  For $5/week, customers will receive three new pieces of exclusive music or audio content from some of industry’s biggest acts: U2, Bob Dylan, Elvis Costello, Elton John, Emmylou Harris and Deathcab for Cutie.

While (RED) remains controversial for some, I applaud their approach because while I opened this post with an air of scholarliness - I was just perusing the New York Times and stumbled across this article - in truth, I found it on @U2 while I was looking for more information on rumored track called “The Cedars of Lebanon” on U2’s upcoming new album.

I’m a perfect example: find out what people are already excited about and get involved.
