Recently I was watching YouTube videos that caused me to be a little pessimistic about the fate of humanity. People hurting each other, outrageous acts perpetrated against innocent victims in the name of “humor”, Christians bashing Christians, Muslims bashing Muslims, Christians bashing Muslims, Muslims bashing Christians, Atheists bashing … well, everyone. It’s depressing sometimes.

So I wondered if there is actually anything good going on in the world of YouTube. So I went in search of channels that seemed to be about something other then themselves. I found well over a hundred and I’m not done yet.

Over the course of a few days I was inspired, challenged, cried, raged, put my head in my heads in both despair at man’s inhumanity to man and man’s ability to reach out to his fellow man.

Over the course of some time I hope to put together more of a structured list, groupings, etc. Maybe even highlight a few for you by checking out their websites.

Now, my criteria were very simple. I looked for channels that were active (someone had recently logged in, videos had been recently posted) and channels that seemed to be promoting something good or working for something good in the world. I didn’t have a chance to go to each and every organization web page, review their organization and its practices and make a value judgment about the group. I just list them here.

There are groups for all over the world, all over the U.S. and covering a wide range of issues. If you look over the list you’ll probably find something you can get behind, get involved in and support and possibly make a difference in the world.

If you have a site you’d like added to the list or know of a good charity, social, positive channel, let me know and I’ll add it to the list.

For more than 55 years, UNHCR has protected and promoted the rights of tens of millions of refugees and displaced people. For those who flee their homes because of war or persecution, the UN refugee agency is often the last hope for a return to a normal life. UNHCR cares for more than 40 million of these uprooted people.

My book -- "In the Hot Zone:One Man, One Year, Twenty Wars," published by Harper Perennial, is available now at Borders, Barnes and Noble, Amazon and most of your local booksellers. It also contains a DVD of our full-length, documentary, "A World of Conflict."
I'm donating a portion of any profits to three incredible organizations: Campaign for Innocent Victims in Conflict (CIVIC), International Rescue Committee (IRC), and Save the Children. In today's world there's just no good excuse for ignorance or apathy anymore.

About Me: Imagine a year-long journey to nearly every war zone in the world--but the greatest danger you face isn't just the bombs and bullets, but the unsettling power of the truth.
IN THE HOT ZONE: One Man, One Year, Twenty Wars by Kevin Sites (Harper Perennial; On-sale October 16, 2007; Paperback Original; $15.95) chronicles the travels of acclaimed pioneering backpack journalist Kevin Sites (ABC, NBC, CNN) as he sets out with only a video camera, digital still camera, laptop, satellite modem and a determination to put a human face on global conflict.
IN THE HOT ZONE includes "A World of Conflict" bonus DVD, a full-length documentary film about Kevin Sites's 'Hot Zone' project featuring never-before-seen footage from the world's conflict zones. Sites has received numerous journalistic honors, including the 2006 Daniel Pearl Award for Courage and Integrity in Journalism. For more information, http://hotzone.yahoo.com.

More than a festival.

SCREEN.
ACT.
IMPACT.

The Media That Matters Film Festival is the premiere showcase for short films on the most important topics of the day. Local and global, online and in communities around the world, Media That Matters engages diverse audiences and inspires them to take action.

To find out how to submit your film for next year's festival, please visit http://www.mediathatmattersfes t.org/submit

From gay rights to global warming, the jury-selected collection represents the work of a diverse group of independent filmmakers, many of whom are under 21. The films are equally diverse in style and content, with documentaries, music videos, animations, experimental work and everything else in between. What all the films have in common is that they spark debate and action in 12 minutes or less.

Every June, Media That Matters presents a new collection of twelve shorts. The festival launches in New York City with a World Premiere at the IFC Center and an Awards Ceremony at HBO where every filmmaker is honored and many receive cash awards sponsored by major foundations and corporations. Previous presenters include Tim Robbins, Al Franken, David Cross, Woody Harrelson, Barbara Kopple and Peter Yarrow. The festival launch also includes the Media in Action Workshop, a unique convening of filmmakers, educators, activists, nonprofits and youth, hosted by the International Center for Tolerance Education in Dumbo, Brooklyn.

The June launch events are just the beginning of a jam-packed year of Media That Matters. The films stream online in their entirety, broadcast nationally and are distributed on DVD to educators and activists. Media That Matters reaches thousands through community screenings around the country. From classrooms to board rooms, movie theatres to home theatres, hundreds of events take place throughout the year. Arts Engine staff produce and attend many screenings, while many more are organized by individuals committed to change. We provide everything you need to host your own event, and we invite you to contact us for support in bringing Media That Matters to your neck of the woods.

About Me: About Americans for UNFPA

We build moral, political and financial support within the United States for UNFPA. UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund, provides womens health and promotes the rights of women in 180 countries. It is the largest international source of such assistance.
We are the official committee for UNFPA in the United States. We are a U.S. based 501C-3 organization funded by private foundations, corporations and individual donors. We were founded in 1998. We educate, advocate and raise funds for UNFPA.
UNFPA, like all UN agencies, is funded by the voluntary contributions of governments and private foundations. UNFPA was founded in 1969.

Our Work
Our outreach has generated tens of thousands of supporters for global womens health and channeled their passion into advocacy on behalf of UNFPAs program. The result is an increase in the U.S. governments contribution to UNFPA to $50 million. (UNFPA, like all UN agencies, is funded by the voluntary contributions of governments and private foundations.)

Our current goal is to gradually increase U.S. funding to $100 million for the life saving work of UNFPA.

Since 1998 we have raised over $40 million to support UNFPAs work from individuals, foundation and corporations.
Each year Americans for UNFPA honors individuals who have made exemplary contributions to womens health and/or the promotion of womens rights around the world. These extraordinary individuals promote women in their own communities, often in challenging circumstances. These are stories of courage and commitment that Americans rarely hear.
Each year an American college student becomes a young ambassador for UNFPA. Chosen for her interest in a career that promotes women around the world, the winner of our Student Award travels to visit one of our honorees, lobbies her members of Congress and educates her classmates on the challenges and solutions to global womens health.

About Me: My name is Shawn & I'm a bit uncultured - here's why...
In 2006, I was a grad student at Notre Dame. Then I heard Dr. Jeffrey Sachs (author of the book "The End of Poverty") talk about how it's our generation's responsibility to end poverty.
I withdrew from grad school, packed my bags, grabbed my laptop and bought a camcorder and then flew to Bangladesh to see how I could make a difference among some of the world's poorest.
I'm not a charity or anything formal. This is my unemployed, unpaid, and "uncultured" journey to make the world a better place by helping the poorest of the poor.

Too many children are still dying because they haven't got enough food or because they can't get treatment for simple illnesses. Millions aren't getting an education and are being exploited and abused. This is not good enough.

We're changing this, partly by working directly with children, and partly by using our experience and influence to persuade governments and others who are responsible for children to do the right thing by them.

We work in a really broad range of countries, from fragile states like Afghanistan, to developed countries like the UK.

It's simple to save a child's life. We just need to act

Our current campaign in the U.S focuses on immigration. Unfair immigration laws deny due process and violate human rights. These laws affect all immigrants: legal residents, those fleeing persecution, students and undocumented people. We have video stories, animations, speeches and a video game (www.homelandgitmo.com) that we have produced to illustrate this injustice.

The Alzheimers Association is the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer care, support and research. Our mission is to eliminate Alzheimers disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health.

Today there are an estimated 5 million Americans living with Alzheimer's, and someone new faces the disease every 71 seconds. By mid-century, someone will develop the disease every 33 seconds -- unless we act now!

Alzheimer's disease is an escalating epidemic due to our aging population. In fact, 10 million baby boomers will develop Alzheimer's disease in their lifetime. But your support as Alzheimer Champions allows us to move closer to ensuring that more of us can grow older without fearing this devastating disease.

Join our cause: Sign up as a Champion today at www.actionalz.org!

Since 1993, The V Foundation has raised more than $80 million and awarded cancer research grants in 37 states and the District of Columbia. Researchers have developed their laboratories and taken their science from the labs to the clinics with the help of funds raised by The V Foundation.

The V Foundation started with the dream of Jim Valvano, the passionate and committed former NC State basketball coach and award-winning broadcaster, as he battled cancer. Wanting to see the battle through to victory, Valvano recruited friends and family to lead The V Foundation in his quest to eradicate the disease that ultimately claimed his life. With a dire need for early developmental, critical-stage grant support, the Foundation was formed to assist the brilliant young researchers that will eventually find cures for cancer.

The V Foundation awards 100 percent of all new direct cash donations and net proceeds of events directly to cancer research and related programs.

ENOUGH NEEDS YOUR HELP. A deadly war is raging in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, and our insatiable demand for electronics products such as cell phones and laptops is helping drive that conflict.

Eastern Congo is the most dangerous place in the world to be a woman or girl, and the sexual violence there is often fueled by militias warring over conflict minerals, the ores that produce tin, tungsten, and tantalum—the 3 Ts— that end up being used in our electronic devices.

Thirty contestants have posted videos which raise awareness about the link between our cell phones and the violence in Congo. Now our judges, Oscar-nominated actor Ryan Gosling, actress Sonya Walger from ABC's "Lost," and Oscar-nominated director Wim Wenders, have selected the best three and it is your turn to vote for who you think should be the winner. Voting ends September 8 and the winner is announced the next day.

The creator of the winning video will be flown to Los Angeles (from within the United States), where the video will be screened at the first-ever human rights symposium during the Hollywood Film Festival (www.hollywoodfestival.com) on October 24 at the ArcLight Cinemas in Hollywood. The winning video will also be featured on the Enough Project's websites and YouTube's contest page.

Our cell phones don't have to fuel the deadliest war in the world. Use your cell phone to call on electronics companies to COME CLEAN 4 CONGO.

Don't we deserve to know whats in our phones?

The contest is being sponsored by Enough, a project of the Center for American Progress to end genocide and crimes against humanity. Enough focuses on crises in Sudan, Chad, eastern Congo, northern Uganda, Somalia, and Zimbabwe. Raise Hope for Congo is an Enough campaign to protect and empower Congolese women and girls.

We are two musicians who have established a non-profit foundation to help support some of the world's less fortunate. We are trying to give the poor opportunity by supporting microcredit (small loans) education and healthcare. Microcredit allows people to develop small businesses and bring themselves out of poverty. It's an amazing solution that's really working and giving the poor a chance for a secure future that they control.

We are proud to be working with Prof. Muhammad Yunus, 2006 Nobel Peace Prize winner. Please check out our website for much more info and to join our community, 'Become a Green Child' today, and give positive solutions a bigger voice!

Youth Service America is committed to creating a global culture of engaged youth who are committed to a lifetime of service, leadership, and achievement.

YSA improves communities worldwide by increasing the number and the diversity of young people serving in substantive roles.

YSA will achieve this through public mobilization and advocacy campaigns; the creation of incentives, support, and recognition; and providing information, tools, and training.

Founded in 1986, Youth Service America (YSA) seeks to improve communities by increasing the number and the diversity of children and youth, ages 5-25, serving in important roles. Why? Because half the worlds population is currently under 25 years old, and 40% is under 19 years old. Engaging young people as partners in social initiatives leads to positive youth development outcomes, including academic achievement; benefits to those they serve; and healthier communities.

Since its founding 22 years ago, YSA has been one of the primary architects of the modern service movement, activating innovative new models and strategies to engage youth in service to their communities. YSA was created to coalesce and direct an emerging movement of youth service programs, which formerly existed in diverse and scattered grassroots forms. YSA created a common vision and strategy to enable effective programs to serve as models for support, expansion, and national public policy. In this way, YSA functions as an umbrella organization in all streams for national, community, school-based, and now global service, embracing all faiths, political affiliations, social issues, and demographics through the angle of youth as problem solvers.

Today, as an international resource center that partners with thousands of organizations on six continents, YSA elevates the role of young people as responsible citizens who serve at the local, national, and global level.
