Doctors Without Borders

Here we go! The first organization I want to spotlight is Doctors Without Borders. Every day, some 27,000 doctors, nurses and medical professionals from all over the world go to where they're needed most -- usually the worst places on the planet, where plague, natural disaster and armed conflict have resulted in a critical need for medical care.
These medical professionals are the doctors and nurses next door, but instead of playing golf in their free time, they're going to Darfur or Georgia to care for others. They're making huge sacrifices, and in some cases, they're putting their lives on the line.

Our donations will help get these professionals to the place they're needed most, and give them the tools they need to treat those in desperate need. For more info on Doctors Without Borders and their activities, click here. And to put your five bucks down next to mine, click here for the donation page. And remember, when you donate, e-mail this blog to others so they can join us!
