Re: Announcing the Zone's 2011 Birthday Project for MercyCorps--Unite for Japan!

Can anyone tell me how much you need to hit $6,000? docplacer: go to the first post of this thread, click on the donate link and you'll see at the bottom that we've raised about $5400 so far.

Re: Birthday Project 2011--Mercy Corps: Our Work in Japan

Wow, the above post sent chills through me. How very wise they are to define limits, to protect their children. I think all of us remain staggered by what happened in Japan, the sheer enormity of the disaster remains impossible to grasp. Such parallels here to our tornado devastations, and then the ...

Re: Announcing the Zone's 2011 Birthday Project for MercyCorps--Unite for Japan!

Couldn't be a more worthwhile choice for this year's birthday project honoring Johnny Depp. Prior to my current career I worked in the field of international development for over 25 years and it's a small community, you get to know who does good work and who just spends people's money, and MercyCorp...
