This movement aim to raise awareness, initiate action and to shake the web!</p>
<p>This year <a href="http://blogactionday.org/">The Blog action day happened on 15/10</a>, however I decided to publish my action today in case some of readers didn&#8217;t get it from another blog.</p>
<p>Living in Australia, but coming from a great but unfair country like Brazil, My view is that poverty problem isn&#8217;t a lack of resources to <strong>feed</strong> and <strong>shelter</strong> everyone, it is a problem with the distribution of these resources.</p>
<h2>The answer to changing poverty is really a question: What am I willing to do about it?</h2>
<p>There are uncountable ways for us to help!</p>
<p>Personally I believe people want to be fed, but they want to do by themselves. They want to have a place to call home and they want to have their pride to come back home with food bought with their money, not someone else&#8217;s money, bu money coming from their work.</p>
<p>Based on the premise that <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Jacques_Rousseau#Theory_of_Natural_Man">men are good</a>, I decided to help with a <a href="http://www.grameen-info.org/">microcredit</a> of A$250 for Mr.Aman start his own business.</p>
<p>However if you are not willing to spend money you still can help.</p>
<p>My Friend Tad (onreact) from Seo 2.0 (must read <a href="http://seo2.0.onreact.com/">SEO 2.0 blog</a>) built a list of 10 organizations that fight global hunger and how to help them.</p>
