The World Needs Our Help

Hey earthlings! We've all heard about the Oil Spill in Mexico. I believe that the world is like a car. If we can fix oil leaks on our cars, why not on the planet? Seriously, this oil spill is doing tons of damage! It's hurting land, animals, and wildlife. Think- those animals didn't do anything to deserve this! Read some of these cool thinks we can do to help below.

The National Wildlife Federation is now accepting pledges via your mobile device. Text "WILDLIFE" to 20222 to donate $10 to the organization's "on-the-ground volunteer and restoration efforts."

The International Bird Rescue Research Center (IBRRC) lets you support the 16 members of their Oil Spill Response Team, as well as other non-profit organizations working in the region, by "donating, becoming a member or adopting a bird."

Deepwater Horizon Response Unified Command is urging the public to report any breaks in the nearly 1.2 million feet of boom that have been placed throughout the Gulf of Mexico. To report an incident, call 1-866-448-5816.
In addition, the group is soliciting the public's ideas for "stopping the flow of oil into the Gulf, containing or recovering it, orcleaning it up." Click here to submit your suggestion, or alternatively, call 281-366-5511.

The National Wildlife Federation, in partnership with its colleagues in the Gulf states, is recruiting volunteers for an "extensive volunteer wildlife surveillance network."

To report injured or oiled wildlife, call 1-866-557-1401. To report spill-related damage, call 1-800,440-0858, and to inquire about volunteering, or to report oil on the shore, call 1-866-448-5816.

If any of my followers live in the gulf states, you can do so much more! Thanks for listening. -AJ

Mission: Children by Night

Mission: Children by Night

We need YOU to help us! Children in Africa are being rounded up now by soldiers after having to watch their own family get ed before thier eyes. They are forced to kill people, their own friends. They are kidnapped and made into soldiers: Only to fight against the ones they love. Poor children are being deserted by their families because the family is scared to be with their own child. The children must walk all night, trying to find safety before the soldiers get to them. We need you to donate your money and gather together at "invisible children" peace rallies. If you feel like giving the "Invisible Children Foundation" money is a waste of money, think again! Go to their website! You can purchase cool shirts, diaries, and bracelets. If you buy from the website or donate money, just comment and I will mention you all on Twitter! IF YOU DO NOT BELIEVE ANYTHING I SAID, CLICK THIS LINK TO WATCH A VIDEO. http://www.invisiblechildren.com/theMovie/media/index.php
