Giving

There's a website that I really like called thegiveblog.com. The authors are dedicated to giving away as much of their income as they can, and encouraging others to do the same.

Recently they had a link to an article by the washington post. In this article a billionaire is asking to send him their ideas on how he can use a billion dollars to create jobs. He wants projects that will be sustainable, so in essence he doesn't just want to do handouts.

Here's a link to the article http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/where-to-donate-1-billion-local-philanthropist-seeks-ideas/2011/09/23/gIQAXvJXtK_story.html.
