Articles at Boston.com linking to Do Good.

Neat.

The editors at Boston.com have linked from two online articles back to the Do Good Channel.  This is so powerful for nonprofits - read and Do Good.  Take a look:

Tuned In - Evidence that black-throated warblers use the grapevine to pick nesting sites upends conventional wisdom

Make way for puffins, terns, and laughing gulls

This is the power in our model - an article moves you, interests you, makes you want to do something.  Now you can.  You can Do Good.

Great volunteering opportunity – Dorchester Arts Collaborative.

This sounds like a terrific event and a great opportunity to volunteer for the arts. Check it out here.
