The Blog Off cometh…
The Great Blog Off is this Friday!!! The Great Blog Off is an opportunity to do something good. The Business Channel will be supporting Accion International as our charity. The mission of Accion is: to give people the tools they need to work their way out of poverty. By providing microloans, business training and other financial services to poor men and women who start their own businesses, Accion’s partner lending organizations help people work their own way up the economic ladder, with dignity and pride. With just a little capital, people can grow their own businesses. They can earn enough to afford basics like running water, better food and schooling for their children. Basically, Accion helps small businesses all over the world to become established through small, manageable loans and business advice. This concept of microlending is fabulous and their payback record is impressive. Charity Navigator gives Accion their highest rating for, among other things, having a low administrative expenses to donations ratio. So, how can you help? 1. Donate. We have partnered with Accion so that you can go directly to their site to make a donation. No amount is too small - every dollar makes a difference! And remember, donations to Accion are tax deductible (you totally knew I was going to bring that up, right?). 2. Guest Post. We have a lot of posting to do on the day of the Blog Off. If you’re interested in offering a post to help, that would be great. You can send us an email (check out the link in the side bar) if you need more info. 3. Stop By and Comment. We’d love to have your virtual support on the day of the Blog Off!
