Hi Anna,

It would be awesome if you posted on BlogHer about what you learned about the Shem Women's Group.

Nice music on your blog, by the way (:

No as I'm in New York. But I am looking forward to learning about the Shem Women's Group in our meeting next week.

Do you belong to a chapter?

I too feel that "saving"

I too feel that "saving" takes on a patronizing stance on the matter. Can you elaborate a bit more on the rest of the article's language? How was this tone manifested (or not) throughout?

Dining for Women

Hi PositivelyAnna,

I'm so glad that you've had a positive experience with Dining for Women.

Will you be going to their conference in October?

I first read about Dining for Women here on Blogher. I decided to look up my local chapter and went to the next meeting, not knowing anyone. I was welcomed with open arms by complete strangers who have now become a group of friends I look forward to seeing every month.

We all have busy lives but that should not get in the way of us helping others, although all to often it does. Dining for Women does a tremendous job of providing us with charities who put our donations to good use. Thank you very much for bringing Dining for Women into my life.

Lesbian Travel

I wrote an article on lesbian travel and Sweet was one of the companies I wrote about. I was impressed with Sweet because of their eco-friendly attitude, which more travel companies need to adopt.

Making Philanthropy Sexy

Britt Bravo — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 15:31:46 -0500

Hi Tina,

Sorry for the delay in responding to your comment. I was on vacation last week. I don't really have a problem with TV making philanthropy sexy, or making the main character flawed, I just didn't like him. Seems like the hero should be likable!!

I Have Not Seen It

Tina Lane — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 12:36:14 -0500

I have not seen this one. However, I am not surprised if TV land has found a way to make a storyline about philanthropy somehow sexier and more provocative than we we would expect it to be in real life. www.floridagirlmidwest.blogspot.com

Bruce Sprinsteen and Superbuild

Thanks for the information about the Habitat for Humanity SuperBuild, miscellanea. It sounds like a great event.

Maria, the link to Bruce Sent Me is great. I remember hearing about his doing that in 2007, when a local Oakland organization I've supported in the past, People's Grocery, was the recipient of donations when he played at the Oakland Oracle Arena.

Habitat for Humanity SuperBuild

Since I'm located in Tampa Bay, I'm aware of a variety of related fundraising ventures trying to make the most of having this event in our community. The Habitat for Humanity SuperBuild, for example, is part of the NFL's Community Impact Program.Two local Habitat affiliates are inthe middle of a week-long blitz build which will result in six new Tampa homes for families in need--plus an additional "Champions" home that will be delivered to a family in the winning team's home state.
