What Can I Do?

            This is a question that most people ask themselves. That is the good thing about our technological advances, we can get a message out to the world in very little time. We can do so many things, donate money, send supplies, donate blood, write letters for moral support, etc.
             I'm sure a lot of people know about the "We Are the World" music video for Haiti. What this music video did was unify a variety of artist for one common goal. I know that a blue collar worker can not do anything like that, but anything that brings awareness to people who need help is important. With the most recent tornadoes in Alabama, we can get a hold of "American Red Cross" to donate.
           Even some of your most popular television shows like "The Colbert Report" advocates to help the victims of Tuscaloosa, Alabama by text messaging  "REDCROSS" for a $10 dollar donation. I guess the point of this post is even one person can make a difference in someones life, so next time you think about buying the newest phone or that pair of jeans for $100.00, think of how people who need  food, laundry detergent, clean drinking water, basic living essentials.
