I’m sure that many
of you are familiar with Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness (RAOGK), created
by Bridgett and Doc Schneider. For 12 years it provided a resource to help
genealogists to document their ancestors while also providing a way for
genealogist to help the genealogical community.
I suspect that all of us have benefited from the “kindness” and “hard
work” of strangers in our quest to learn more about our family.
To try and fill the void that was created with the demise of
RAOGK in 2011, Mocavo has launched Genealogy Karma. Read more about the launch here
and do visit the website.
Do you volunteer with Genealogy Karma? Tell us a bit about the assistance you have
provided.
Did someone via Genealogy Karma assist you? Tell us how.
Are you aware of other genealogy “help” communities that you
are aware of? Let us know about such!
