Have you guys been following The Uniform Project? The one year project raising money to send Indian children to school is almost over, and Sheena has posted an awesome video of the first 355 days!

She’s been wearing the same little black dress for the entire year since the project launched, and her outfits are fantastical. The thing I love about the video, though, is watching those numbers tick upward as she raises more and more money for kids! Check it:

Jeff's going to power the blogathon using a pedal-powered generator like this one!

Some of my pals over at Sustainablog are going to be at eco bed & breakfast The Milkweed Mercantile throwing a blogathon to raise money for Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage.

The blogathon is raising funds for residential learning opportunities at Dancing Rabbit in organic gardening, natural green building, and wind and solar renewable energy design and installation. They’d love if you’d consider making a pledge to support this sustainable community’s efforts. It’s sort of like sponsoring someone who’s running a race, but instead of pledging an amount per mile, you’re pledging per post! To pledge, just leave a comment on the blogathon post over at Sustainablog

If you’re interested in checking out Dancing Rabbit for yourself, or taking advantage of some of their educational opportunities you can learn more about it on their website!

Sustainablog is one of the longest-running blogs on environmental issues, and they recently launched a nifty shopping site, too!

This past Saturday, Kristen Anderson organized a vegan bake sale to benefit Doctors Without Borders, and it was stellar!

There was an overwhelming outpouring of support from Atlanta’s vegan community! We had one 6′x4′ table, which was filled to the brim before half of the contributors showed up. Luckily, the amazing folks at Criminal Records let us expand our setup to include the entire back counter! They were also kind enough to let us move the bake sale indoors when the weather report called for low 30′s and rain. Thank you guys!!!
