We're throwing a pineapple party to support local farmers on Friday and were wondering if maybe we could throw together a donation drive for something while we're doing it. Any farmer related non profits y'all are aware of?
Check “News and Market,” social cooperation news media that focus on the farmer, agriculture industry, and land issues. They don't accept donations but I think you can buy some of their products to support the news reporter.

I'm thinking it might be a good idea to start getting my blog translated into mandarin. Obviously, I'll need to pay for this to be done lol. Does anybody have any good translation services they recommend? It mustn't be Chinese (PRC) based

Hi everyone - we’re starting a community of *developers, entrepreneurs, hackers, activists,* and others who are tired of feeling helpless when it comes to *human rights & freedoms in Asia*.  Our team member @lynn520 mentioned us a bit before, too.

We took g0v’s projects as an inspiration and would LOVE for some of you to join the conversation with us!

One area that we see potential is with products that make it easier for regular people to have an impact with their purchases, by steering a cohesive group toward better behaving companies.  Perhaps we can organize a brainstorm & hackathon around this to bring people together…

We have an upcoming in-person event (Taipei) to get to know the community on Apr 21, as well as discuss the boycotts related to Xinjiang.  We have a famous activist also speaking at our event: https://twitter.com/wuerkaixi

If you’re interested, feel free to react to this post, comment, or message me.  You can also join the community at www.SnowballForGood.com (mention g0v so we let you in sooner from the wait list!).
