This Wednesday, the 15th of October 2008 is World Blog Action Day. A single day when blogger around the world unite their voices and take command of the media message. For one day, we’ll do our part to acknowledge, brainstorm, and bring about awareness of poverty. There are millions of people around the world who live, day to day, without basic necessities. While we might feel hard done by to have to only half fill our gas tank entire families are without food or water.

Will you raise your voice with us? How can you discuss poverty on your blog and spread the message to your readers and beyond? How does poverty affect you or the people around you? How can you help create a difference?

Remember: “Charity begins at home.” Are there ways you can improve your own situation? Are there things you have that could be donated to others in need? If every one of us make a commitment to change starting small and radiating out through our family, our neighborhoods, our communities, our cities, states, and nations. We can affect real change and make a difference on lives around the world!

Do your part on Blog Action Day!
