Since its founding in 1991, supporting other nonprofit organizations has been at the core of Earth Links’ mission of “bringing people and resources together.” Throughout those nearly twenty years, Earth Links has donated over one million dollars worth of materials to other nonprofits, including clothing (both new and used), software, computers, art supplies, communication gear (such as satellite phones and ham radios), office supplies, and other items. These materials and financial support have been and continue to be critical to the work of women’s shelters, children’s art programs, community development projects, and advocates for indigenous peoples.
With a donation of $500, you can become a major supporter of sustainable rice production for poor farmers in Mali and Togo. Your donation can also help save important varieties of heritage rice. A lack of Food Security and violence in the region has brought great stress to local villages in the Sahel region.
For example, a $25 donation can help provide much (and always!) needed diapers to local area women’s shelters.Your $50 donation will allow us to pay the shipping and handling costs of business and corporate donations of office and school supplies to local shelters and children’s programs.
A donation of only $100 will feed the 70 seniors at the Jinotepe Senior Center, in our Sister City, Jinotepe, Nicaragua, for a full week. Earth Links, Three Americas, and Santa Cruz Sister Cities Committee are working together to meet the center’s critical needs.
