Hi Adventure Philanthropists! Whoa! The weeks are getting crazier – I’m juggling tons of consulting work (a good thing!), plus writing the book (it’s going well!). So no fun for me in the foreseeable future as I keep my nose to the grindstone. But I’m cool with it, ‘cause I’m convinced the payoff in the end will be worth all the blood, sweat and tears of this summer! Now if only I could squeeze in a game of tennis or two... And here’re the articles for this week: New: Donate My Dollars – You Vote, I Give! This month I’m giving a $250 donation to Goodwill Industries in Oakland, CA, and $250 to another Goodwill affiliate of your choice. Just vote for a deserving city within the next 30 days to help direct the second donation! Find out why I’m motivated to help keep the American dream alive—Good jobs with a livable wage!
Favorite: Best of Go Erin Go A year or so ago, Go Erin Go was nominated for the 7 Links Project, which asks bloggers to chose 7 of their most noteworthy posts, including the most beautiful, most popular, most controversial, most helpful, most surprising, the one that didn’t get the attention it deserved and the post I’m most proud of. Here’re my picks out of the more than 500 posts on the site... Disagree with my choices? I’m happy to be wrong and hear which ones you’d chose and why! Write me Erin@GoErinGo.com
Photo of the Week: House on Peruvian Plateau I snapped this photo during a bus ride through southern Peru, heading toward the town of Arequipa. Known as the White City, the town is nestled in the altiplano at the edge of the Andes, surrounded by a barren, but somehow beautiful, landscape. This small adobe house sits, exposed to the elements.
