Every since
we started this campaign we’ve faced many challenges and even greater
adversity. At times it seems as if people lack compassion for other people, but
this can’t be true. In fact, I know that there are many like us around the
world who desire to usher in positive change for all.
The question
is where are they? In Chicago, IL we are developing a program to empower young
people in the Englewood community. We have a great need for skilled professionals
who have technological, creative arts, and vocational skills to volunteer but are
having a challenge finding them.
Everyday, we
hear on the news about the high unemployment, increase of incarceration, early
childhood pregnancy, massive amounts of kids dropping out of school and large
numbers of young people being killed, but when we are called to action many of
us stay home.
