Hey

    My name is Jasmine.
    I am founding a non profit in oregon to channel music energy (funds and enthusiasm) into the goals of clean water, safe shelter, pure food, and safe haven for all.
    This is to be accomplished through a series of educational, social, holistic and blessed means.

    Who else?

    I am Hamish, and I do development research work in post-conflict/conflict countries. I work in Afghanistan and I've got lots of ideas and organizations on my radar here. Check out my profile for more information about my own work. For example, here is a repeat of my first post:

    Dear Friends,

    A former colleague and (not former) friend, Brendan Whitty, is working
    for a non-profit organization that connects private philanthropists with
    effective and appropriate charitable organizations working in areas of
    their interest. They specialize in India, Nepal and Afghanistan.

    At the moment they are looking for reputable US or Canadian on-line and
    paper media to publish an article about philanthropic giving, addressing
    specifically "philanthropic return on investment".

    Any leads or help is much appreciated, please contact Brendan (cc'd)
    directly at brendanwhitty@yahoo.co.uk
