BetterWorld Clubs meet regularly (you decide how often -- once a week, every other
week, or once a month) typically in a member's home or dorm room, in a coffee
shop, town hall or other community meeting place, or at school as an afterschool
club, or a social circle at a place of worship. They provide an opportunity to
share your local and global visions of a better world with others who care, and
to think about ways that you can help make your community a better place to live.

Change
Your Shopping Habits
Another important tool for BetterWorld Clubs is the Better World Shopping Guide.
This pocket-sized book will help you make easy spending choices for a better world
and show you that every dollar counts. As more and more people make their spending
decisions based on better world principles, we will help transform our economy
into a more socially responsible and sustainable system. Support
Nonprofits Finally,
your BetterWorld Club can get involved with a local charity that is addressing
your betterworld path, or you can help by providing a nonprofit with a tax-deductible
donation. Check out Idealist.org for the
most comprehensive directory of nonprofits in every part of the world. Help build
a better world with the next gift you give - instead of helping to promote consumerism,
consider giving Charity Checks instead. When you give Charity Checks, your
friends and loved ones can choose their favorite charity to help and you get a
tax write off. Give the gift of a better world -- help make every dollar count
for a better world. Be
