Lend a Hand

Now, more than ever, progressives and liberals need to get together and get down to work.

We need to help the people that need help; this should be our government's job, but this government won't do it. It's got to get done.

We need to take back our government, to make it work once more for people -- not just for oil companies and media conglomerates and big-money religion. It's going to be hard work. It's got to get done.

We want to build a site to match willing hands and things that need doing. Things you can do. Right now.

Somewhere, there's an organization that needs a Web site, and doesn't have any idea how to do it. Somewhere else, there's a designer who would whip together that site, this afternoon. Let's make the connection.

Somewhere, there's a young lawyer whose late-afternoon client has cancelled. Somewhere else, there's a campaign that needs advice. Let's make the connection.

Somewhere, there's a really good column or a really interesting book about how we can fix our country and move forward. Have a few minutes? We'll find you something worth reading. Let's make the connection.

Got an hour or two? We'll help you find people who need you -- right now. Can you spare an afternoon this weekend? We'll connect you to people who can use your help.

Too often, it seems that all we can do is to give money, put up lawns signs, and vote. That's a start -- but there is a lot more to do. So, roll up your sleeves, pull up a chair. Let's get started.
