from the kickstarter page:

The “Because of Them, We Can…” project started out as a photo campaign that I launched during Black History Month.  The goal was to inspire and empower our kids to be great by connecting the dots between them and the individuals past and present who have blazed and continue to blaze trails.

As the month progressed, what I once believed was confirmed - 28 days wasn’t enough. 

As such, I extended the project for a full 365 days.  Each day a photo is released via social media - Facebook, Twitter, Instagram.

The feedback has been amazing, but the biggest request has been for a book that includes all 365 images.   I could go the publisher route, but I truly believe that we can fund this movement. Here’s where the Kickstarter comes in. Funding this project would allow me to self publish a high quality, hard cover art book that will serve as a source of inspiration and education for all who come across it.  

Funding ends in 5 days! Signal boost or donate what you can!

signal boost!

I remember Ahmed from way back in the day when I was in Muslim school. Please do what you can to help him get a kidney transplant. May Allah reward all of you for your prayers, efforts, and donations. Let’s save a life. Sometimes all it takes to spark a passion for helping people is taking that first step and helping one. Make Ahmed here your spark, and if he’s not the first you’ve helped, add him to your list of people that will always hold you in a positive light in their hearts :) Jazakallahu khairun!

This is my fifteen year old sister, Hannah. She has a cyst on her pineal gland, which is in the middle of her brain. (From what I understand, a cyst is like a tumor but filled with liquid.) We’ve known about it for about two years, and it constantly gives her horrific headaches, that can last weeks. Her vision is getting very bad because of it too, and so is her quality of life, she’s started fainting and had a couple seizures recently. Just last week we had a Skype conference with one of the two neurosurgeons, in the world, who would potentially perform the surgery to remove it. (A lot of people have trouble getting this surgery approved, but because Hannah’s is one of the largest cysts in one of the youngest patients, it was approved.) Praise God. The surgery will take place in June, but only if we can pay the $50,000. We really need help raising this money.

This is the link to the fundraising site.

Any amount helps.

Please keep her in your prayers.

Seriously guys, get on this. If my followers alone donated a dollar each it would make a huge difference. Please, you don’t know what this means to me, or Hannah, Natalie and Timmy for that matter.

Even if you can’t donate, reblogging helps too.

My mom has this. I am terribly sorry and will reblog whenever I can

I gave what I could, but I’ll give a signal boost too!ߌ0ߌ0ߌ0ߌ0ߓᰟӡߓᰟӡ

If you get a message from a Skype contact that looks like this:

DO NOT CLICK THE LINK. It’s ransomware that will lock your computer up, accusing you of possession of child pornography, and threaten to alert the authorities unless a $200 payment is made. And then pass the link along to all your Skype contacts.

SERIOUSLY, DON’T CLICK IT.

If you’ve already been infected, or if you know someone who has, instructions for removing the virus are under the cut.

Richard Berman: if you see this man in public, please spit on him. If you serve him food ever in any restaurant, please do the people of the world a favor and defecate in it. 
April 29, 2013

Yesterday we reblogged something from HumaneWatch.org, which was criticizing (& representing straight-up lies) against the humane society. One reader was kind enough to inform us that HumaneWatch is one of the many misinformation projects of Richard Berman’s. All of the above organizations are various projects run by Berman and Company, paid for by the ruling class, intended to spread misinformation & lies for the benefit of the ruling class.

Richard Berman is a Washington, D.C.-based hired propagandist who uses front groups to defend his corporate clients against the public interest. Using his lobbying and consulting firm, Berman and Company, as a revenue vehicle for his activities, Berman runs at least 23 industry-funded projects, such as the Center for Union Facts, and holds 24 “positions” within these various entities. 

Make a mental note of the above organizations and keep in mind these brands. Never reblog (like I did) Berman and Company’s propaganda. 

It was suggested to me that Charity Navigator is an honest & useful tool for actually evaluating how charities are spending their money. Here’s their information on The Humane Society of the United States. They have a 4 star rating.

The information in that post against the humane society was wrong, but it got 800+ notes (and we contributed to that count in a big way). Please reblog this & do some more reading/post your own posts about the propaganda campaigns Richard Berman is running to combat the misinformation.

I’m sorry we posted the original post, but let’s not allow this opportunity to expose this terrible organization go to waste.

http://bermanexposed.org/

I also took down the original post and apologize for the misinformation - I should have done some research first.

Sorry readers, but I’m gonna be like a dog-with-a-bone reblogging this one, in hopes that I can see this post get more notes than the original misinformation.
