Better World Building
One of the most amazing social groups I've seen over the last few years is LiA in Uganda. Life in Africa participants create more than just community crafts in their spaces; they learn computers, business and microfinance and recently hosted a large gathering with Omidyar Network of social venture leaders seeking to do more.

You can help LiA do a LOT by sharing this link with your friends. If you have a favorite store or market for gifts suggest that they pick up a LiA Store Package and directly help dozens of men and women get on their feet through every purchase.
There are very easy things we can do.

Life in Africa will have more representation soon in Second Life, but visit them on the web anytime and talk directly with the leaders who are trying to build a better world for themselves from Gulu to Kampala.
