BlogHers Act Donation Challenge Results

Thank you to everyone who took the time to leave a comment last week. The comments have been tallied and the donations have been made.

I received 44 comments through yesterday (I decided to count all the comments made) and rounded that up to 50 for good measure. I donated $25 to the Afghan women's project, which received the most votes, and $25 to the AIDS/HIV awareness project in South Africa, which tied for the second most votes with the Nepal clinic -- perfect since I'd planned to donate $25 to the clinic in honor of my mother for Mother's Day.

Once again, thanks for the comments and for helping me decide where to give.

    And look - it's almost at $4,400!!!
