POPSI Have Never Seen a Place as Poor as This I am writing from the Central African Republic (CAR). Not many people know much about this land-locked country slightly smaller than Texas. But the short and not-so-sweet brief on CAR is that it is the second poorest country on Earth after Sierra Leone.

POPSBefore It Was Like I Was Blind Since 2003, Mercy Corps has worked to improve the lives of millions of people in Iraq. Our largest program is in the south of the country, and focuses on community building and good governance. Our Community Action Program (CAP) gives communities the tools to organize and advocate for their most pressing needs, and builds the capacity of local government to respond effectively to those needs. With our help, we hope local citizens will have a voice and an impact in shaping the new Iraq.

POPSNatural, Organic Halloween Candy Could it be that Halloween is lurking just around the corner? Yikes! That means it is time to bust out the Halloween candy. As it turns out, we've been on the search for the ideal Halloween candy since last October. We had a number of criteria to fill: * We wanted a candy that was as organic and natural as possible, and preferably even containing some healthy ingredients, as opposed to just sugary stuff. * We wanted a candy that tasted delicious and would satisfy kids of all ages. * We needed a candy that was securely, individually wrapped, so that it could be handed out at Halloween time without concerned parents having to question its safety. * We wanted a candy that was affordable and would appeal to budget-conscious families. * We preferred a candy that would be safe for children with allergies (nuts, soy, gluten, etc.)

POPSWomen Take the Lead As long as I can remember, there’s been a world map hanging in my grandmother’s kitchen. When I called to let her know I was off to Liberia soon, she was quiet for a minute and then yelped when she found the small west African country — just about the size of Tennessee — located between Cote d’Ivorie, Guinea and Sierra Leone. Over the coming few weeks we both learned a lot more about Liberia.
