When I started my nonprofit business I
was fortunate to cross paths with Jill. Her
energy and enthusiasm, laced with good, solid common sense, really helped me to focus
and commit.

Organizations and leaders I find inspiring and useful:

Pachamama Alliance: By partnering with indigenous leaders in the Ecuadorian
rainforest, the Pachamama Alliance works to
bring forth an environmentally sustainable, spiritually fulfilling, socially just human presence on this planet. Check out their Awakening the Dreamer Symposiums for true inspiration and focus.

Living Compassion: Bringing about world peace through personal transformation.
Living Compassion is the nonprofit organization founded and run by Zen teacher and
author Cheri Huber, from whom I've learned a great deal.

Margaret Wheatley and the Berkana Institute: Meg Wheatley masterfully shows us
in the Western World how to set aside our mechanical world-view and see systems and relationships in a fresh, inspired way.

Global Mindshift: To make the emergence of global community unstoppable. Check out this global online community of "regular people" seeking to connect around our shared web of wisdom and humanity.

Kiva: Loans that change lives. Experience the power of connection and inspiration by
joining with others to help a business person in the third world grow her/his enterprise. Read requests for micro-loans from the business owners themselves.
