a little picture I’m a Quaker from South Jersey with a love of outreach and ministry. More bio and my contact information in my about Martin post. My other sites: QuakerQuaker.org, a social networking site for Quaker bloggers and MartinKelley.com, my technology blog and freelance web services site.

The End is Near

There's $7 in the Nonviolence.org Palpal account, not even enough to cover the current monthly charge to the web host. The world's top-ranked Nonviolence website with over 5000 visitors a day is about to wink out of existence because of lack of funds. Maybe that's appropriate. Lots of people talk about peace but the near-complete failure in fundraising for this project points to a reality that we don't really care enough to give serious support for these sorts of projects. My posts have been dropping off lately simply because I have to work my paying job to make ends meet (even so they barely meet but that's a different story).

If you think it's worth supporting major publications for peace, you can make a donation here. Twelve dollars will keep it going another month. Even better, U.S. citizens can look at their recent income tax charges, half of which went to support military spending. Why don't you give ten percent of that half to Nonviolence.org and other worthy peace projects?
