You are invited to join The Nature Conservancy to Plant a Billion Trees in The Atlantic Forest of Brazil.

The Nature Conservancy is working with local partners to bring the Atlantic Forest back from the brink by restoring 2.5 million acres of land and planting 1 billion trees over the next 7 years.

Just a dollar a tree. You’ll help to make a difference now and for future generations.

I have donated $25 for 25 trees. How about you?

I made the first batch of charity donations of the year 2009. The donations are given to Tzu Chi, World Vision, and Agape Counseling Centre. RM500 each.

It has become my habit to make donations every two or three months. I believe that “the more you give the more you will get”.

I have registered myself as organ donor. How about you?

I wanted to be an organ donor for a long time since my elder brother showed me the green donor card to me a few years back.

I stumbled upon the website of National Transplant Resource Centre (Malaysia). The web design is surprisingly nice, much better than other government websites.

Be an organ donor

I downloaded and printed the organ donor form from the website, filled in, and faxed it back to Notional Transplant Resource Centre.

Done. I am now an organ donor. (I am expecting to receive a green donor card..)

Next, let your family know that you are an organ donor. Ask them to register too!

Happy Deepavali 2008, or the “Festival of Lights”! I have made another batch of charity donations for this festival. Hopefully the small money will light up some lives.

The beneficiaries are all multiracial non-profit charity organizations in Malaysia:

• Malaysian Red Crescent Society
• Buddhist Tzu-Chi Meris Society
• National Kidney Foundation of Malaysia
• World Vision HOPE Fund

P.S. I have got my first cheque book from UOB after rejected by Maybank.

Today is the Blog Action Day 2008. The theme of the year is “Poverty”. For that, I joined Kiva and made a few loans.

Kiva is the world’s first person-to-person micro-lending website, empowering individuals to lend directly to unique entrepreneurs in the developing world.

Kiva helps people to fish rather than giving them the fish. The loaner do NOT get any interest but the biggest profit is that you changed a life by micro-lending.

I joined Kiva since 2007 but never been an active loaner before Oct 2008. Shame on me!

Blog Action Day suggested that bloggers donate their earning of the day for charity. I made 4 Kiva loans USD$25 each. Check out my lender page.
