Echoes Around The World
www.echoesfoundation.org

Since 2005 I have visited 7 African countries and have fallen in love with the beauty of the people and their land. I am sure you have heard a lot about Africa in the media and I am hoping to help connect the idea with faces and real ideas. In a small village in Uganda lives the Trinity School, where over 600 children are receiving their primary education. Unlike the United States, there are no "real" public schools, so supporting a private institution becomes the only true way to give these children a chance, and sometimes even a home. I have never been received with more love than when I first visited Trinity. In addition to the primary school, there is a medical clinic, nursery, and high school that are all connected by the spirit of one man.

The Gene Hart Memorial Golf Outing
www.genehartgolf.com

The long-time "voice" of the Philadelphia Flyers and NHL Hall of Fame Announcer was my father. Sadly he passed away in 1999, but each year my family and the Philadelphia community gather and celebrate his life with a golf tournament. All money earned going to Temple University Health System's Radiation/Oncology programs. The Hart family and Temple University Health System have been able to do amazing things to help fight cancer and change the face of this disease. We all have been touched by cancer in some way.

 
   
 

The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International / Orangutan Foundation International (OFI)
www.gorillafund.org / www.orangutan.org

I have always been fascinated by both of these beautiful animals. A love that was inspired by my father as a little girl. The mountain gorilla and the orangutan are endangered species whose populations have diminished due to poaching, encroachment, and logging. They are closely related to humans and one look into their eyes leaves no doubt. This past summer I trekked the Virunga Mountains in Rwanda to learn and support the work that Dian Fossey started in the 1960's. A trip that I will never forget and certainly the greatest adventure I have ever taken. This summer I will travel to Borneo to learn and actually take part in the release of orphaned orangutans into the wild with scientist Dr. Birute Galdikas. We cannot lose our link to these amazing primates. I hope these photos and web sites inspire you to learn and take action! Stay tuned...

 
   
 

ONE Campaign
www.one.org

I love the One Campaign. it is a nonpartisan effort to fight extreme poverty and global AIDS. You can make a difference simply by signing your name. THis declaration increases awareness. Solving these problems may seem overwhelming and sometimes it is hard to know where to begin. ONE makes it easy. There are all sorts of tangible ways you can contribute. Even the smallest act can become part of the biggest change.
