Welcome to summer ya'll! Here in the south, we can definitely feel it! I know for one, I've been living at the pool lately but other then that, more importantly, I've been living to do good through the movement. Which brings me to my next point, just wanted to remind everyone to please "Like" us on FB and follow us on Twitter, as well as subscribe to the YouTube Channel please. All links can be found under the "links" tab above. I've also decided to continuously add new dates for upcoming events in the area under the "Follow Us" tab above. When new events are decided, I will update that page. If anything interests you, you know what to do (give me a shout). I would also LOVE to have you on the team, even if you don't live around here. If anyone is interested in being a captain of a new team in their own city, by all means, hit me up! I'll help you get going with that. Little bit of good news is that we will hopefully get some local coverage soon as well as expand the team. We hope to throw our own festival event at the end of summer, as well, and are looking for organizations or individuals that want to be a part of that. Just let me know, as always! Also, don't forget to check out our Diigo Hotlist under the "Links" tab above which will take you directly to valuable resources that can help YOU change the world such as an extensive list of organizations: local, federal, and worldwide. Finally, if you want to actively join the movement offline but don't know how or maybe you even have a brilliant, or somewhat brilliant, idea...please don't be a stranger! You're voice matters.
Hello there friends, thank you for stopping by my blog! I 'm Suzanne and I'm the creator and founder of Project Change The World. I began this movement from the childhood dream that I could make the world a better place. Yes, I know, most children dream of being astronauts or rock stars but I've always been slightly different than most. Nonetheless, my dream of living life to the fullest by making a difference in the world was fully realized back in May 2010. I was tired of sitting back and helplessly watching bad things happen to innocent folks. I was sick of not doing anything about it. I decided it was time for a change. I scribbled some notes and ideas into my composition books and began the planning and research phase. Shortly later, PCW began to come to life. I realized that if no one else was going to do something like this, someone had to. Someone had to stand up for what's right. Even though I don't like scary movies and people have let me down one too many times, I decided that it was time to be brave and step out of my comfort zone. I thought of all the greats (MLK, Rosa Parks, Lincoln, Einstein, Washington, etc.) and realized that if they too had been afraid, where would our world be today? So here I am writing this, in hopes that one day others will step up too and join the movement to save lives. My ultimate goal is to live in a world where kids can safely play on the streets, people are strong enough to do the right thing despite temptation, no child really is left behind because they are our future, nature is preserved, no animal is abused. cancer is cured, teen girls don't starve themselves, and so on. Some will call it all naive and unrealistic but anything great in life never comes easy. I dare to do what others deem impossible. I want to live in a world where good deeds and spontaneous, warm-hearted gestures mixed with strong yet gentle love are everywhere to be found. Don't you? But wanting is not enough; it's time to do something with that dream. We must enable, empower, save, help, restore, give, heal, and change. Join me?
