Can $10 Change the World?
April 11, 2008

Yes it can! It can make all the difference in the lives of millions of families all over the world who live in lean-to's and makeshift housing without access to clean water or sanitation.
Just think, if every person who reads this article donated $10 it wouldn't take long before we had enough money to build a new medical clinic for a remote village in Ethiopia, or drill a well in Indonesia, or an orphanage in Liberia.
Almost everyone in America, rich or poor, can afford $10. If you can afford a daily latte, then this should be no problem! This is not true in many other places in the world where $10 is all they make in a week's worth of hard work. In many places people make between $10 to $20 dollars a week and yet food and gas costs are quite similar to costs here in the US.
There are over 300 million people in America today. Now, let's say half of us are unable or too young to give. That leaves 150 Million people who should be able to afford $10.
That means if all those people donated $10, we could easily raise about $1.5 BILLION dollars! That translates directly to more than a million homes for families who would otherwise have nowhere to live.
So you've been "tagged". You're in the know. You are on the ground floor of a grassroots movement which WILL change the world.
Let's start a REVOLUTION!
Send this information to anyone and everyone you know. Take it to church, take it to work, take it to a party... Let's get THIS party started.
Oh, and one more thing; The Domes for the World Foundation's overhead is almost negligible... meaning the money you donate will go directly to building homes and research and development of new project sites.
