Using the Internet for Something Good ... and You Can Help as Well

A fellow internet marketer's (Jason Mangrum) mother was in a car accident and is in the hospital. It seems she's OK, but will have some heavy hospital bills to pay.

Instead of sending her money you can take a minute of your time and buy one of her writing products.

Take a look: http://www.smartauthor.com

Now, no one makes a penny from this, all the proceeds will go to Jason's mother.

A car accident is a horrible thing (I know, because I've had 5 of them in the last 4 years, and the last one nearly cost me my life), but it is nice to see how it brings people together to help those that were hurt.

The last I heard 49 other internet marketers are doing what they can to help Kristi, and they are all donating all of the proceeds to her. I'm sure that by now this number has at least doubled.

In the end, it really doesn't matter who you are trying to help with the internet, as long as you are trying to help someone. It doesn't matter if anyone knows you're helping out.

What matters is that you are helping and doing what you can, no matter how small it is.
