   We are at 36 hubs! (Not everything in the RSS feed is a hub.) I'm projecting that we will hit at least 50 hubs, so everything after #25 in the feed, by Jennifer, will go in roundup hub #2

   Here is my Hubmob contribution. http://hubpages.com/hub/What-Makes-Us-Generous
   A little different, but hopefully on topic. A special Thank You to Kevin Peter who's hub "How can We Help Haiti? How To Donate Some Money Through Volunteer Organizations" provided me with a necessarily link that helped tied it together.

   There are scam artists out there trying to con donations from well-meaning Americans. I wrote a hub to give you four tips for you to consider before you donate to charity.

   thanks, I must be in tune, as Ive been working on a couple of charity or animal related hubs. I suppose I just have to finish them before this hub mob finishes to add them.
   
   One is very special and I hope to make something good out of it for Haiti.. so please wish me luck this week.

      It's never too late.  New topic will be announced Monday, but this topic, or "question" stays open.  I will monitor the forum thread and RSS feed for a week, but you can email me at any time to add you to the roundup hub. 
      
      Just make sure to start your hub from the link on Princessa's first post on this thread. You can also check out Princessa's "How To" hub:

    good luck Salt,  I had just done a hub on green gadgets and one of the gadgets was a solar flashlight, well the light is bogo light and they are donating to haiti right now with every purchase of a light they send one to a charity, Haiti obviously doesn't have alot of electricity resources right now so they are shipping these lights there to help so I made a whole hub just on the bogo light. was kind of a funny coincidence that something from another hub fell into the charity category

    Hi everyone... I've gone for a niche charity.. very small but powerful in its own way..
    
    Strummerville: A Charity in Honour of Joe Strummer of The Clash – What’s It All About?
    
    Let me introduce you to the charity Strummerville! Set up in honour of the late Joe Strummer of The Clash, the trustee’s consist of family and friends who create opportunities for musicians who lack the necessary funds to do so. They also support projects and organisations based around Joe Strummer’s ethics and beliefs. This ranges from providing instruments to prisoners, to help with rehabilitation (Jail Guitar Doors), to supporting people after murder and manslaughter (SAMM).

    In light of the overwhelming need worldwide as well as the sometimes equally overwhelming options, sometimes it helps to remember that helping others doesn't have to be complicated.

    I just wanted to tell you that I have just had an email about my hub - the charity strummerville (Joe Strummer of The clash).  This was a hubmob charity special.  Well, not only have I been formally congratulated for the hub, but the strummerville website (one of whom the trustee;s is the artist Damien Hirst!) have asked my permission to place a link in their site!  Can you believe the beauty of hubber love?!
    
    Of course I declined... no, of course not, you dont think I am serious?! hehehe  I am absolutely honoured!
    
    I dont mean to boast, but I am thrilled cos these things just don't happen to me!
    
    Thank you hubpages, I really needed a boost in my life at the moment!
