No time to wait. We need your help right now!
Blog Action Day 2008 is coming up in just six (or five, depending on your time zone) days.
We want to make an unforgettable noise about the subject of poverty this year.
So if you care at all about changing the world’s conversations or the world itself, please help us do this.
What We Need You to Do Right Now
Leave a comment below and share at least one idea of something a person can do on Blog Action Day 2008 - not just something they can blog about, but some kind of action they can take.
For example:
Visit a local homeless shelter.
Talk to your children about poverty.
Don’t go shopping; give the money you would have spent to charity.
Talk to a local government leader about poverty where you live.
Start a new blog or website about poverty.
That’s five ideas to get us going. We want to make a huge, huge list of great ideas though. Dozens. Maybe even hundreds.
So now it’s your turn to talk. Just add your ideas below - as many as you want - and we’ll keep track of all of them. Don’t even worry if someone else has mentioned the same idea - just tell us what you think a person could do to make a difference on Blog Action Day.
Next week, either right before or right on Blog Action Day, we’ll publish the huge list and you can Digg it and Stumble it and print it out and run through your neighborhood shouting it, and make a video of yourself doing it, and put the video on YouTube, and we can all feel the good vibrations.
That way everyone has a ton of ideas of things to do and your mother-in-law won’t have any excuse not to participate in Blog Action Day.
Thank you! Now let’s hear all your ideas!

Here's my idea:
Go to a local foodbank & Donate at least 1 food item + 1 new toy (for young kids & don’t forget the teens!)
