CARE For A Walk

Welcome to Blogging Sueblimely. To keep up with my posts you can subscribe to my RSS feed and follow me on Twitter. Thanks for visiting!

One of the advantages of blogging is the voice it gives us on a worldwide scale. Even if you have only a few readers your words can be spread from blog to blog. We often use this viral characteristic to promote our blogs, and to pass on memes and awards. What really fires me up is the ability to spread the word about good causes, helping those who are also trying to spread the word and those who are putting in time and effort for their causes.

My friend, Renny, tells us about the co-founder of LinkedInNorway, Morten W . Morten ,who is trying to raise money for CARE Norway, recently walked a lap of the Oslo City Hall for every 90 Norwegian Krona (NOK) that had been donated; accompanied by Renny. His next challenge will be when he reaches 20,000 NOK and walks 40 laps which will take approximately 6 hours.

Care Norway “places special focus on working alongside poor women because, equipped with the proper resources, women have the power to help entire families and communities escape poverty.”

Please read more about Mortens admirable efforts on Renny’s blog at Care for Women Living in Poverty and if you wish to donate you can do so here on the CARE donation page

Yes, I saw that one too. Funny thing is that I also posted about a good cause at the same time: about the suffering in Darfur!!!

So much unnecessary suffering going on in our cruel world. *sigh*
