Chaîne de PeaceOneDay. Peace One Day is working to manifest an annual day of global unity; a day of intercultural cooperation on a scale that humanity has never known. In the late 1990s, filmmaker Jeremy Gilley and founder of Peace One Day created a documentary about his campaign to establish an annual day of cease-fire and non-violence. And in 2001, Peace One Day's efforts were rewarded when the member states of the United Nations unanimously adopted a resolution making the 21st of September . . .Peace Day. Through the actions of people all over the world, we are proving that the Day is working, that we can save lives.
Last year, in Afghanistan, alone, the United Nations reported a 70% reduction in violence on Peace Day, and 1.6 million children were vaccinated for polio. The next stepping stone on this journey is to reach 3 billion people with the message of Peace Day by 2012. What will you do to make peace on 21 September? Accueil.

Seth's Blog: I gave at the office. Mark Rovner has an insightful post about the current state of fundraising and non-profits. The short version: most big charities are based on direct mail fundraising, and as you're read here before, direct mail is dying. What to do? I'll start with the bad news: I despair for most of the top 50 non-profits in the US. These are the big guys, and they're stuck. The good news is this: the Internet is not a replacement for direct mail fundraising. As soon as commerce started online, many non-profits discovered lots of income from their websites.
The big win is in changing the very nature of what it means to support a charity. The big win is in turning donors into patrons and activists and participants. The internet allows some organizations to embrace long-distance involvement. Do you have to abandon the old ways today? Haiti earthquake – Flickr : Rechercher.
