when disaster strikes, (such as the awful earthquake that hit haiti 10 days ago) i am all for donating money to the red cross and i support the HUGE telethon that will be on TV tonight to continue to donate money to haiti. however, sometimes its hard to just give your money away when you don't know exactly where its going or what is going to be done with it. its hard to donate money to someone "without a face". you wanna know..."how did i help?"
well.....listed below is one local way to donate some money. you will know exactly where its going and the purpose of your donation!!
its is a FUN, local way you can donate to the relief efforts in haiti.you can feel good about your donation and know it will make a difference to those who need it.
'Canes and Clean Water
NEW YORK — Hundreds of New Yorkers have been riding the city's subway trains in their underwear.
They stripped down to their undies on Sunday for the ninth annual No Pants Subway Ride.
The idea is to act like nothing unusual is going on.
Participants met up at six locations throughout the city. They formed groups and dispersed to subway stations to catch trains. Once inside the subway cars, they began calmly removing their pants and folding them up.
Most people read magazines or chatted with their companions like any other straphanger.
The event started in 2002 with just seven people. It has spread to other cities.
The stunt is organized by Improv Everywhere, a group that says its mission is to cause "scenes of chaos and joy in public places."
