One Bold Step

Everyone talks a great game about changing the world, or even just their lives, but courage, while free, comes with one price: action. I want to share my bold step with you, and, if you write to me with your bold step, and it's timely, I'll post it on my site every couple of weeks, if not more often.

Randi's Bold Step

Air America Radio talk show host Randi Rhodes has started a new charity: Change For Change. As broadcast on her radio show earlier today, Randi said that Change will act as a big "piggybank" with the goal of raising at least $50,000.00 in six months to build a house in conjunction with either Habitat For Humanity, Oprah Winfrey's Angel Network, or both.

Randi talked about how the Bush administration is not rebuilding communities in the wake of hurricanes Katrina, Rita, and Wilma, including her own. She wants people to search their cars, their couches, and their wallets for their spare change and bring it all to local Air America affiliates. At the end of the six month time period, June 2nd, Randi will travel to as many AAR affiliates as she can to collect the money.
