There are so many good people doing so much good. I certainly don't know about all of them, but these are some that I do, and I want to promote them and make sure I help get the word out about the work that they do.

The Domestic Abuse Program. The Minneapolis-based Domestic Abuse Program has a remarkable success record for ending the cycle of abuse. As often as you heard it's almost impossible to reform an abuser, you should instead hear about how often DAP succeeds.

The Minneapolis YWCA. While there are other more "glamorous" organizations, the Minneapolis YWCA serves the very heart of Minneapolis' most diverse youth. Here's an astonishing fact: the downtown Minneapolis YWCA is the largest daycare provider in the Minnesota- now that's an important responsibility! I am honored to know CEO Becky Roloff and share her fierce passion that we have no greater obligation in our society than to our youth.

Audubon Minnesota. We care about nature in Minnesota- even during tough economic times we voted to pass the natural resources referendum. Audubon is a great sponsor of citizen science, and their new breeding bird atlas project needs you if you can volunteer!

Carpenture Nature Center. Carpenter is locating just southeast of Minneapolis and Saint Paul near Hastings. Carpenter provides lots of environmental education for students of all ages, outdoor hiking trails, and lots of volunteer opportunities for people who care about nature.

Tiffin Glass Museum. The Tiffin Glass Museum preserves the history of one of America's greatest glass houses. I admired the glass so much I wrote a book called Tiffin Glassmasters: The Modern Years. If you like really groovy 1950's art glass, you'd like Tiffin Modern. I donate copies of the book to the three different glass museums, including the Tiffin Glass Museum. If you buy a copy from them, you support the preservation of art history, and a terrific group of dedicated volunteer who all have a special place in my heart.

Old Morgantown Glass Collectors Guild. The Old Morgantown Glass Collectors Guild preserves the history of glassware made in Morgantown, West Virginia. The Guild also has a young museum in downtown Morgantown. The Guild's website offers items for sale which benefit the Guild and the Museum.

The West Virginia Museum of American Glass. The West Virginia Museum of American Glass, while originally focusing on West Virginia glass houses, has expanded to encompass all American glass. This Museum has recently acquired the collection of the National Marble Museum. It also have a lot number of books and catalog reprints which are available for purchase.
