Six Degrees 

Turning the power of a pop-culture phenomenon into a mechanism for global good 

Six Degrees
You've probably heard of the game “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon”. The concept is that any one person (including Kevin Bacon) is connected to any other person through six or fewer relationships, because it's a small world. SixDegrees.org is about using this idea to accomplish something good. It's social networking with a social conscience.

Six Degrees, a site created by Kevin Bacon in partnership with Network for Good, is a way to raise funds for SOS Children’s Villages online with personal “charity badges” (fundraising widgets). You can either create your own badge or use ours.  You can post it anywhere you can embed widgets or add code - just click the “share” tab on the badge.

Because Six Degrees gives you a tool to fundraise anywhere online, it's a great approach to for all you bloggers out there. You can add them to your email signatures, or link to them. You can even integrate them into social networks like MySpace!
