Tbird's American Express Members Project Veterans Community Centers

[Tbird]

I'd like to tell you about "US Veterans Community Centers," a project I created for The Members Project. To support my project, read and rate it at membersproject.com.

To check out the other exciting ideas submitted by American Express® Cardmembers across the country, visit http://www.membersproject.com/Community_De...165?search=true

The Members Project brings Cardmembers together to dream up incredible ideas for projects that could make a positive impact in our world. If you have an idea for a project of your own, be sure to submit it before June 17. Because in a few short weeks, Cardmembers will come together to vote on which project American Express will fund with up to $5 million.

So where does the money come from? It's all about power in numbers. For every Cardmember that registers, American Express contributes $1 — up to $5 million total. So the more Cardmembers that participate, the bigger this thing can be.*

Will you send meningitis vaccines to Africa? Rebuild a school in New Orleans? Or support small organic farmers? The possibilities are endless. The decision is yours. Join The Members Project today.

I dont have any credit cards so I cant help here but I do feel this is a good idea.

I help a project in Cambodia- as Tbird said this money can be used in foreign countries to great benefit.

My donations -which I dont consider to be big ones ---- to a Cambodian Orphanage-just outside of Phnom Phen have helped them build an entire school there-our US dollars go a long way in these poverty stricken areas-

I have personally know the man who runs this newly built school -for his whole life and he emails me incredible pictures of the work that has been done there.

His mother who I have know for 40 years went there last year and was startled at first by it all- she never travelled like that before ,never saw poverty like that before, and is very proud of the considerable work her son has done-

Good for you TBird-

sounds just great---

Thanks for registering. American Express has just contributed another dollar to The Members Project. Now you're ready to get started. Explore the projects submitted by your fellow Cardmembers. Or submit a project idea of your own. To help you track what's happening, you will receive periodic e-mail alerts from The Members Project.

Ok I joined and hopes that it helps. I was having problems because my security does not allow add ons with out me approving them so I did not see the American Express part until I approved it.
