With the donations flowing to Haiti I just hope other needs are getting some help. Writer Charyn Pfeuffer is doing more than that:

The Global Citizen Project will see me, professional journalist Charyn Pfeuffer swap my BlackBerry for a backpack to volunteer with 12 community projects in 12 countries over 12 months. I’ve traveled around the globe in the name of work and have been profoundly impacted by the communities most underserved. I realize it’s impossible to save the world with bite-sized stints of service, but plan to promote the selected causes and communities, before, during and after the terms of service, as well as responsible travel via my platform as an influential journalist and blogger. I plan to embark on this adventure in June 2010 and will commit a minimum of two weeks of volunteer service per month.

This woman has a heart of gold and determination galore help- out here!
