Members of this future organization will make the final decision on the name to use, the constitution and by laws, its officers and its programs and policies. If you wish to join as a founding member, please sign up below:

    This is too corny. I don’t see the need for such an association it’s just pure advertising and vanity. Well, you can do whatever you want this is a free country. I do not need an association since I am earning too much with my blogs and websites. Good luck to you.

    I SHARE BECAUSE I CARE – seek the good of another without expecting anything in return; being sensitive to the needs and suffering of others and actively finding ways to improve their condition; participate in the thoughts and feelings of others; place oneself in the other person’s situation and to communicate genuine understanding and deep concern…
