My Other Sites

Matlin Software Services
If you look around Peace Love Kindness you'll see that I ask for no donations. However, I don't get paid for this and do have to earn a living. So if you need a programmer, please visit Matlin Software Services. I have skills related to various Internet technologies as well others related to programming in general; see the site for details.

Organizations that have contacted me

Pilgrims of Peace
From their website: "PILGRIMS OF PEACE ORGANIZATION is a very newly established Organization, struggling in a very unique way for Global Peace, Human welfare & Unity, Environment, Animal welfare and Women rights. It will soon send a dedicated team consisting of Seven PILGRIMS (Four Females & Three Males, belonging to different Nations) who will travel around the world on Bicycles, and will deliver the messages of Peace, Unity and work for their Agendas." Recently I received an email from their founder, Dr. M Alam Azaad stating that they are unable to obtain the necessary visas to make their pilgrimage, which of course I don't understand.

The Child Labor Coalition
From their home page: "Promoting health, safety, education, and well-being for working minors. Pursuing an end to child labor exploitation."

QuitDay.org Tobacco Production and Unethical Labor Use
Related to the above item in spirit. From the site: "Federal law allows anyone above the age of twelve to work on farms, and this fact makes the work a natural target for children of low income families who seek to help their parents financially."
