blogmas #17

Today, youtube is being invaded by people being awesome and aware. Aware that there are things in the world that are less desireable and people who are really really horrible off. There are people living in this world deserving our help.
That's what Project4Awesome is for.
Project for awesome is a worldwide project created by John and Hank Green, and is placed on youtube. Every year on December 17 and 18, people post videos about charities on their channels, raising awareness that there needs to be done something for the people that are less well off than us. There are a variety of videos online for this year already, and I think all of them are worth watching.

Even if you are not able to actually donate to these or any other charities, knowing and raising attention about the problems many people in this world are faced with is very important and crucial to decrease all the worldsuck that is in our world. Knowing is an action already.

I'm not telling you to go out and donate money to charities, because frankly I don't either, because it's just not possible for me, but I encourage each and everyone of you to go out and watch P4A videos and get to know about ways you can learn to make our earth a better place. There is no excuse for not doing anything. You are a person living in our world, so it's our duty to help make this world a better place.

Know that you can do anything, as long as you want to.
Until then, DFTBA(don't forget to be awesome)

Here are two videos I really liked:
