The Life You Can Save is becoming a truly multinational website. It is now available in 12 languages, including Chinese, with more translations on the way. And the 3346 people who have pledged to give a percentage of their income to help the world's poor come from 59 countries! We have a new map, courtesy of Google, that shows which countries have the most people pledging (although you need to move down to the more detailed level to get this accurately, as at the global level the map groups several countries together). Here's the list of countries from which people have pledged:
Antigua and Barbuda
Argentina
Australia
Bahamas
Bahrain
Belgium
Bosnia and Herzegovina
Brazil
Bulgaria
Canada
Chile
China
Colombia
Costa Rica
Czech Republic
Denmark
Estonia

Of course, we'd like to get pledges from even more countries. Russians, where are you? As for the number of pledges, they are still moving up steadily, but please spread the word, and remember that everyone who pledges is setting an example for others to follow and helping to change the culture about giving.
