The Age of Empowerment Series (Lesson IV)
Lots of change and lots of good news to post. This is the fourth post in the Age of Empowerment Series is a pleasure to write. I’ll cover the good of people helpin’ people and cap with a relief to your wallet these days.
Let’s Begin….
Last Wednesday marked Blog Action Day. October 15th over 12,800 bloggers participated and wrote
posts on the theme of poverty- the stats and the facts, their reflections and actions to rid the world of poverty. These posts encouraged action always- regardless of any current economic times…and the reminder that curing poverty empowers us all.
12,800 bloggers- blogged 14,053 posts- read by 13,498,280 neighbors worldwide
Heating your house in tough financial times could be tricky. Luckily the grassroots campaign to save Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) was successful. $5.1 Billion was granted to assist low income families and seniors with their energy costs.
Learn more about how to continue this help in the post that appeared on the Lee Street blog earlier this week, “The trickle down effect of homeownership in tough times…you can make a difference”.
Pulling up the rear of this good news party train was a sigh of relief heard round the country as we filled up our gas tanks this week again to low prices….gas in my town is right around $2.75…I can’t even remember the last time it was this low.
That funny thing called supply and demand is working it out at the pump.
Check out what gas prices are in your neck of the woods.
