Maria's Space: Help Empower Our Sisters in Malawi

My friend Maria over at Maria's Space has this great post about the Women of Malawi and how we can help them:

Here's how you can get involved:

~ Visit Join My Village and join one of ten village teams to benefit approximately 75 villages in Malawi
~ As a village team member, you will get to know the women and families in Malawi through frequent updates, photos and stories
~ You can also track how dollars are creating change and improving lives in Malawi
~ Through simple online activities - answering a quiz question, telling a friend about Join My Village, or joining a village team - $1 will be unlocked by General Mills and will go to CARE's poverty fighting programs in the Malawi villages (limit of 3 activities per person per day, and $15,000 per online village team - or $150,000 in total)
~ Additionally, General Mills will match personal contributions dollar-for-dollar for up to $50 per donor, $15,000 per village team or $150,000 in total
~ CARE will distribute all funds raised directly to Malawi to provide economic opportunities for women and increase access to quality education for girls

I've already signed up and joined a village and it amazes me that with all they are going through, the faces of these women are smiling and beautiful.
