Being charatible with #tweetEAfrica @letgive and @kiva

At the moment I have two really interesting charity briefs on my desk. I’m hoping we end up making some great work for both organisations, but it’s got me thinking that my giving has fallen short lately.

So I’m getting my act together with three great initiatives!

The first is an idea from @edwardbroches to give $1 to @theIRC for each thing you tweet, I’m up to $13 at the time of writing this. You should get involved, and perhaps together we can make a small dent in the East Africa famine crisis. The hashtag is #tweetEAfrica and you can read more about it here >

Secondly is the new iPhone app called Snooze by LetGive. It’s an alarm clock which donates to a charity of your choice everytime you hit the snooze button. I’m guessing it was developed in response to the April Fools prank from ThinkGeek awhile ago.

Lastly I’m determined to start using my Kiva account. Everytime I go the site I get overwhelmed and can’t decide who to loan money too. Please share with me who you are helping or who you think I should help and harass me to actually do it.
