52×52

Giving to (a different) charity every week for an entire year. Seems like a big commitment but also a big opportunity for massive investment. Think of it as a Groupon for good. The more people sign up, the more money is raised, just like that.

52×52 is “a group of people committed to helping others. Every week, 52×52.org will highlight a different charity and call on you, those willing and happy to help others, to donate directly to that charity.”

You can choose $52, $25 or $10 as pledge amounts and you can start now, along with the site’s charity features, or you can start when you’re good and ready. Alternatively, I’m thinking you could give that to someone for Christmas (if you celebrate it). 52 weeks of a gift that keeps on giving.
