TEDxAustin - Philip Berber - 02/20/10

Philip Berber is co-founder with his wife Donna of The Glimmer of Hope Foundation, which was recently ranked as the 6th most effective philanthropy in the world. Philip encourages us to act locally to impact globally; ask the rural poor of the world what they need, and then take steps to help them help themselves. As an Irishman living here in Austin, we can't help but consider Philip as our very own Bono. (No wonder he's so good up on the Austin City Limits stage.) glimmerofhope.org

Dear Ted and the person that posted this video,

Can you please put, "GLIMMER OF HOPE" int he video title above?

This video moved me so much, but it was one of the last videos I watched because I did not know what it was about I read the description or listened to it. Since the videos are listed so tightly during search, the "description" is unseen. I think that is why the hits are low.

Can you please put the title, "Glimmer of Hope" in the main title bar.

Thank you so much for posting! :)
