I found your post after Googling “Take away my birthday”. (a phrase a co-worker of mine used to always say). Well this year I gave mine away to Puppies Behind Bars. They use prisoners to train service animals for vets.
I have been thinking about the concept for quite a while now and would like to start a social movement, combining philanthropy with social networking and a little peer pressure. (Keeping in mind that I have no capital, or web skills… I am literally at square 1 with this.)
So far all I have done is bounce ideas around, I would like to hear some of yours. Think of the good that can be done if just 20% of all Americans donated their birthdays or Christmas’ or anniversaries or whatever.
High hopes, I know, but I guess I have to start somewhere.
I would be remiss if I didn’t tell you that I am approaching this from a completely secular perspective, but that is one of the things I like about the idea. It allows people to share their interests as well as learn about new ways to give that they might never have heard about otherwise.
Are you interested in pushing this forward?
