This should show it all......






This is the logo for New Latitude our emerging non-profit* committed to mobilizing initiatives that actively promote community projects benefiting both people and the environment. This organization has hatched out of the grassroots project hoavy, which is based in Madagascar, where we are creating environmental and educational incentives to empower rural people and protect extremely rare and endangered biodiversity. New Latitude is based in Ann Arbor, Michigan and we are pioneering a sister project here to promote community energy and food independence in the Midwest, through environmental advocacy based on safeguarding the Great Lakes. In the near future we hope to develop and incorporate a distance leaning portal linking Madagascar to Michigan. Both projects are in their 'seedling stages' so ideas, links or comments of how to build them up and connect these remarkable people and places is of course always welcome. Our website will be up very soon and we are already excepting tax exempt donations at http://ihcenter.org/groups/newlatitude.html so please spread the word.

  1. Was looking at the http://ihcenter.org/groups/newlatitude.html and trying to figure out how that worked. Is that an organization similar to the United Way? Where they take in donations and send a portion to everyone on the list?
