I Want To Help Make the World Better

posted on August 3, 2012

The response to my Shot@Life Blogust post yesterday was simply amazing.

Thank you to each person who commented and helped raise such a large amount of money to help make vaccines available to children around the world who would not usually have access to them.

The world needs a lot of help and it should be the duty of each and every one of us to make it a better place.

We have a rule whenever we go camping or hiking to “leave it better than we found it” and I try to keep that in mind ever single day.

While I’ve always made myself available to help with any charity or organization that approached me, things changed earlier this year when I went to Ghana with ONE.

Seeing first hand how much help a single country needed changed me. Our own country needs a lot of help as well. The whole world needs help.

I’m committed to making the world a better place. Working with organizations like ONE and now with Shot@Life are just the beginning of how I can help. I have so many ideas on things we could do together and I hope at least some of them end up happening.

Recently I’ve become more committed to helping bring change to the world through creativity. I have a head full of ideas and need to start making them realities. The $100 Investment certainly pushed me forward with making this more official quicker than originally planned and that is a good thing.

The work I get to do with Wediko, Know My World and most recently Lost Kidz is rewarding, but I want more.

Can I help you or your organization? My camera, words and hard work are always available for worthy causes. Please consider contacting me out if there is a way we can do some good together.

This big blue marble we live on needs a lot of help and it is up to each of us to do our part to help those around us. Are you with me?

    This is so flipping awesome! Thank you for being THIS person! so great! And letting others know we don’t have to know how, we just have to know we want to. I too have had a head full of ideas since WDS and the $100 Miracle, and I wrote a post about what I’m creating next in the world. I hope you’ll go read it and then maybe we could collaborate. I’d love to know what you get out of it!

        I was wondering which part, very nice. BTW, I used to live in Cape Coast Ghana. Ghana is such a cool place!

        I don’t remember exactly where but I know we were north of Accra going village to village announcing the new vaccines.

        It is a beautiful and cool place for sure.
