SCG at Wake up and LIVE wants you to be her valentine. She has a great idea for giving, rather than receiving, to celebrate the day of love. Read her post and take your choice.
I choose:
St. Paul's Foundation for International Reconciliation.
This is an organization headed by Rev. Canon Albert Ogle in San Diego, CA. Started last year, its focus is on helping communities commit to reconciliation particularly around LGBT issues, HIV/AIDS, women and literacy. They are supporting the work of retired Ugandan Bishop Christopher Senyonjo, who has risked his life to help LGBT Ugandans (+Christopher shared the front page of the scurrilous Ugandan rag "Rolling Stone" with the late David Kato. The newspaper called for the hanging of "homos". ) As anyone who has followed my blog or postings at Facebook knows, I have been deeply troubled by Kato's murder and the subsequent circus that happened at his funeral.

Thank you, Mimi! A great Valentine choice.
ReplyDeleteSCG, I loved doing the post and the donation. Of course, you made it easy.
