Giving to those who are truly in need

=ImaRawkStar:iconImaRawkStar: reports, December 23
This is the time of year of which we all get tangled up in our own troubles and do not focus on some of the real issues of the world. Well, heifer.org can help us with this, by giving animals to families who are truly in need of food, shelter and security.

By donating a small sum of money, such as ten to twenty dollars, you could provide a family with an animal such as a cow, which could produce milk for the family, for food and cooking. With the extra milk it produces, the family can go to the local market and sell the milk to gain more money, which could go towards food and shelter. Over time, the family will start to gain an income and will be able to earn an education.

With the education, they can receive a steady job and produce a stable income for the family to survive. Just by donating a small sum of money, you could not change one life, but many around them. But this is not just it, the family MUST produce offspring to give to another family, which will do the same thing as the family before. Over time, the community will grow and sooner or later, the impoverished areas will start to gain strength.


Even if you can not donate any money, please donate a few seconds or minutes by adding a favorite to this article and sending it on to other deviants around deviantart. It would be really awesome if we could get some support on this, and maybe as an art community we can pull together to help others in need! I know it can be done!

SAAM Sexual Assault Awareness Month, April

=crystalofchaos:iconcrystalofchaos: reports, 8h 28m ago
Rape is not just a crime, it is a heinous and personal invasion on the most intimate of levels. Rape destroys lives and belittles its victims. End the silence, conquer fear, and speak up. We need to raise awareness and help prevent this inhumane crime.

the deviantART minors protecion

*zombierap21:iconzombierap21: reports, January 27, 2008
hello,this articule i will post is about the risks of be minor of 13 i hope everybody enjoy it,and sorry if i have a bad
spelling,



why i most be mayor of 13 years to be in deviantART ?

DA is a big comunity to express u art,you fellings u love for the art and the live,the ppl in deviantart what make you.
be safe for any perv or worst pedophiles. or any peoples that want hurt you,because they are like our teachers or masters or tutors they try to show us the right way to be a artist,in a pacific way now the the point, why be mayor of 13 to be a deviant?

the deviantART comunity had allied with "COPPA" (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) to protect the minors of
join deviantART,in this form they are gonna be safe,because can be pedophiles, people dangerous ppl in DA(in weird occasions are one thanks god the admins ban them)

who is COPPPA?

The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, effective April 21, 2000, applies to the online collection of personal information from children under 13. The new rules spell out what a Web site operator must include in a privacy policy, when and how to seek verifiable consent from a parent and what responsibilities an operator has to protect children's privacy and safety online.

The Federal Trade Commission staff prepared this guide to help you comply with the new requirements for protecting children's privacy online and understand the FTC's enforcement authority.


a real case of kid be raped by pedophiles by using internet without the parents segurity

in the day 14 of november of the 2007 karla "m"(the name is gonna be protected to no have problems with the authorities and her parents)with 11 years old was using he father laptop and she entered to xxxxxxx.com (the real name have been protected to no have problems with that website.) and she entered under the username k-labella and he started to chat using a false age of 19 years old,them she meeted a user named lk-reghot and they started to be a very close friends(later he told him that was a minor) until he asked where she live cuz he wanted to meet her(obvious she said him) 2 weeks later, she meeted him in a motel,and he locked her in a room and he raped her,thanks that a janitor was near hearing all the moaning,worried he called the cops and he got arrested him,the raper real name was (manuel antonio N),the authorities in founded in he backpack(one condom,a videocamera.a id and 200 false pesos),pedro got taken the san jose courtyard,where he got sent to the jail from 20 to 52 years without possibility of sent free

actually the poor karla most take care of her daughter betty(and her mom and dad most take care of the minor
baby all for use the internet without care)


conclusion

DA community ban minors because want any person no be affected or being in any danger for that if u are minor
no think that the admins or the core are mean nooo , THEY DID IT because they want keep u safe and life
a happy and safe artist life

I'm glad to see such an article written here. :aww: But one thing I'd like to point out: not every minor is ...well, uhh, stupid... to share their personal information with strangers. =) I know some minors whose parents are very strict of the sites their kids use, and they are regularly checking out what their kids are doing over the Internetz. Of course, the Admins cannot know the real situation of how a minor's parents might or not might be following their kids' doings, and so looking at the subject from this point of view bans and stuffs are righteous. :shrug: Still, everyone is an individual, and so is every case. =) And from what I've seen, the minors using DA are not a big problem yet: photo galleries like [link] and [link] are much worse, with 12-years-old or even younger girls/boys posing in ''sexy'' clothes and poses. :| Also it's sad to be chatting on [link] where 11-years-old are looking for dates, and one 13-years-old girl claimed to be bisexual. :no:
Maybe I've just been uhh lucky but I haven't met such minors yet. =)
One thing I do not like about minors is their language... Not just all the grammatical errors, but selfish, all-demanding behavior, all the cursing... Do they even know what half of the words they use really mean? :slow:

Loads of nonsense. :3 Thanks for the article!
