Make and honor a pledge.

Sometimes it's easier to get started with your good work if you have a friend or two who's in it with you. PledgeBank.com is here to help make that possible. Just submit your pledge, spread the word, honor your pledge, and watch the good works grow. Check out some of the pledges I started:

* www.pledgebank.com/giveblood2006
* www.pledgebank.com/justclick
* www.pledgebank.com/letters
* www.pledgebank.com/sowhatcanido

Feel free to pledge with me. And just for the record, I do the things I promise regardless of how many people pledge to do them with me.

If there is some action about which you feel strongly, make a pledge, gather support, and, together, honor your pledge. And let us know about your success. The PledgeBank.com is a great way to generate interest and action on the things that matter most to you.

Thanks for creating a great pledge, Janice. Exercise is so important. Increased exercise, a healty diet, and abstinence from tobacco can reduce illness leading to death by 50%. A pedometer is a great way to keep track of incidental excercise, so thanks for encourage the use of them.

I hope you'll visit So what can I do again soon. And thanks for signing on to my pledge!

Debt management services

Finding an agency which provides debt management services is a wise choice for any individual who is financially struggling or in debt.

Some debt management services design a program in which you deposit money once a month into a trust account. When you are due to pay your monthly bills the debt management agency pays them for you. This debt management service takes care of your payments for you and makes sure you won’t spend money on unnecessary things.

Nonprofit Debt management services

Nonprofit organizations exist which provide debt management services for free. They mainly focus on helping you with budgeting. Their debt management service assists you in creating a budget that will work for your unique situation. These free debt management services won’t contact creditors and get your monthly payments lowered, but they can help you manage the payments you have. This type of debt management service is recommended to anyone who is not in serious debt.

Finding a debt management service that fits your needs

When looking for a debt management service make sure to analyze your financial status and choose a debt management service according to your specific needs. Some people can manage with a nonprofit organization while others will need to pay for an agency which provides a debt management service that can negotiate with their creditors, get monthly payments and interest rates lowered.

If you think you need a debt consolidation loan since you find your self knee deep in debt it’s recommended that you first consult with an agency that provides debt management services. Applications are usually free and you get reliable and professional advice for your situation.
