Taking time and donating resources to give back
For me, 2010 is going to be a year to try and give back more than I have before. Therefore, I am seeking out opportunities to give my time or donate resources to causes that I feel are making an impact for the greater good. Here are some of those organizations I am helping out in 2010...
