(tho I'm ashamed to say I've yet to even pick up a hammer on their behalf, but I do gladly patronize businesses that support them.)

Everyone knows I'm a huge advocate of Habitat and that I dedicate a lot of time & effort to their mission. I think they're a great organization that works hard towards solving a real problem.
On that note, I believe that contributing to any cause is valuable. Getting involved makes such a difference. It could be anything from working with an organized group, to picking up trash while you're walking around your block. Realizing there are problems that need to be addressed is a big step towards solving them. Once you're there...it really is a small step to get involved.

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
