Invitation
Last year at this time NOW asked for viewer suggestions and resolution about getting more involved in the community and the world. We renew that invitation now. Send us your ideas to now@thirteen.org.
Take a look at NOW's Action Ideas and some of New Year;s 2003 resolutions sent in by viewers for inspiration:
Keep in contact with my legislators and major newspapers in my area.
Follow what Congress is making policy on and make my opinion known.
--Gene
Find ways to share program resources like NOW and other educational programs with relatives, friends, students, neighbors and general community contacts in order to broaden the knowledge/idea base of all audiences.
--Naseem
Look at the Universe and all earth's creatures with awe
and wonder everyday.--Mary Listen more, write at least one letter to the editor on the role of America in the world, write at least one letter to my congressman, Senators, Governor, and President, and reach out and improve the life of someone less well off in some tangible way.--Frank
Discover the underlying assumptions of those with whom I most disagree politically.--
George
Use a cash-back credit card for every purchase you make, and use your refund
check to support non-profit groups you care about. This year I earned over
$300 on my cash-back card, and used that "free" money to support six groups
doing good work for the environment, workers' rights, and international
development.--Mike
Read up on all candidates and vote in every election, and encourage others to
vote, too.--Whiggery
