Help support a great organization and this website... “The sky is falling, the sky is falling” said Chicken Little which, if you turn on the radio, watch the TV or read the paper feels fairly accurate. Everywhere we turn the word “crisis” is in the air – the financial crisis, the food crisis, the global warming crisis, the terrorist crisis. One would think that nothing good is happening in the world, which is far from the truth!
Mothers Acting Up
The 2009 Mothers Acting Up Calendar is here!
The Moment: a calendar and guide for advocating on behalf of the
world's children
The 2009 MAU
calendar, The Moment, is dedicated
to moments of personal change that shift the direction and purpose of our
lives. Often these extraordinary moments are heralded by very ordinary tasks.
They arrive – when we're cradling babies, grocery shopping or bicycling – and begin
magically transforming us into passionate advocates for social change.
The Moment is a weekly
engagement calendar that also offers tools and
information on how to: get and stay inspired, get
educated, and engage with other individuals and organizations working on important
issues. Most
importantly, the calendar features portraits of people who inspire our own activism
– from the mom next door to Isabel Allende,
Paul Hawken, Mukhtar Mai and Ann Veneman. This calendar and guide is a tribute
to pivotal moments of change, designed to incite your own year of Moments!
Get inspired and in the process, support Outdoor Baby. For every purchase of
the calendar through the link above, Outdoor Baby will receive 15% of the sale.
