Beginning 52 weeks of giving

I was inspired to start giving after reading an article about Juliette Wright, the founder of givit.org.au. She decided to make giving away pre-loved or new items much easier, after trying to give away her baby's clothes.
I believe that we all have something to give away - it may be books, DVD's, CD's, clothing etc. Or it could be as simple as helping someone else. Brisbane and Queensland suffered from extensive flooding during Christmas and January. There is still much to be rebuilt. The Premier's Flood Relief fund has helped many, and will continue to do so. But I feel that we can help each other, as individuals.
I am starting this blog to keep me on track. I plan to give something - an item, or my time, or assistance every week for 52 weeks.
Any ideas or thoughts that you may have are welcome!
