Hope for the Homeless! #807 at AMAZON!

Nope, not my book, sad to say, but an important book -- a book about homelessness from a grassroots organizer who has run the gauntlet -- from homeless Vietnam vet to United Nations-lauded homeless activist. If anyone knows anything about where we've gone wrong, and what might help the problem a lot, it's Richard Troxell.

And his book just hit #807 on the ALL BOOKS list at Amazon.com!

It's the thermal underwear drive!

Every year, House the Homeless, Inc. has a thermal underwear drive. This year, they have a nice link set up at firstgiving.com. 100% of your tax-deductible donations goes to HTH projects -- they are entirely volunteer. Ten dollars buys a top and bottom thermal underwear set for someone homeless and on the street -- if you give $25.00, HTH can outfit them from warm hat to new, thick socks, including gloves and a scarf.

I need to crater, but that's where my next drop of sweater money is going. So thought I'd leave you with a link:
