Wishadoo is a free service to connect people directly – all people — empowering citizens, easing the daily struggle and enriching lives, and in the process creating more compassionate, caring communities. Wishadoo! is where people discover they are part of something bigger than themselves as we all work together to create a New Way.
This New Way will be achieved via Wishadoo! online and “real world” local communities where people connect directly, sharing needs and wishes, and helping to grant others’ needs and wishes. The Wishadoo! Communities are developed one person at a time, growing to include families, schools, organizations, and businesses, all working together to improve daily life for everyone in their own “backyard.” As each backyard grows and strengthens, the Wishadoo! Effect expands and radiates beyond geographic boundaries ~ there are no limits ~ creating a new way…a new world…thinking, wishing, doing, and creating outside the box.
Wishadoo! is a social visionary enterprise committed to and infused with the core values of integrity, respect, and compassion. The intent is to be self-sustaining and to eventually create jobs and income opportunities for others through a cooperative model.
What Wishadoo! offers is a bridge to create this new way. We invite you to take a step toward active compassion…step into a new world…and welcome to Wishadoo!

Rising from the Ashes (Spirit of Wishadoo)
Within the next few days, we will be back to post more, explaining how this story ties in with Wishadoo.
Indeed, this process of coming together as related to this tragedy, is Wishadoo In Action.
For now, this post is fully focused on Dan's story and one way you can help -- how you can "Chip In." (see widget below)
As many of you may already know, Dan and his son barely escaped a fire at their complex in the early morning of 12/28/09 while they slept. They literally came away with the pajamas they were wearing. Here is a news link, detailing the event:

"They ran to the safety of a neighboring apartment building. Behind them, everything else was consumed by the flames, including fish, a turtle, a rabbit, and his dog, Daisy."
While they are grateful to be alive and safe, this tragedy is more than most of us can imagine; they lost so much...their beloved Daisy...and they are truly having to rebuild their lives from scratch. As Dan says, "one hour at a time."
Were it not for Dan's immediate family (many of you know Steph/Rain, his mom), they would be on the streets. The safety nets just aren't in place in our society as they should be, so we must help one another.
They all know they are blessed, yet this is a very, very difficult path they are walking. A path most of us can't imagine. There but for the grace of God....
Please contribute what you can -- even $5 adds up when others join to do the same -- to help them in this process of rebuilding. This is a family who has given to others...to their family,friends and their community throughout their lives. It's time to help them. Please join me in doing so.
I can already tell you that the simple act you of taking the time to read this means the world to them all. :)
