Cnn runs a story about Sale of 1 house will help 30 villages. A family in Atlanta, Georgia, has decided to sell their house, donating half the proceeds and moving into a house half the size.

Hunger Project Vice President John Coonrod, estimating the money could affect more than 20,000 people in Ghana, said that:

This will underwrite a process in more than 30 villages to enable people to meet all of their basic needs on a sustainable basis. They will be able to grow enough food, to build clinics and schools, and the villagers will be doing the lion’s share of the work.

Hannah’s awakening to social injustice, and her family’s ability to make a difference in that issue will make a profound difference in the lives of tens of thousands of people,

This is a really great example of what downsizing can mean in terms of making this world a better place.
