Zach was in sociology class last week and they were discussing poverty. A man spoke up about this carnival he's been attending for the past four years at the Rescue Mission. He went on to say that even though he's not homeless he's been attending because his family is limited on resources and its an event that offers his children a day relax. How amazing is that?

Big things are in our future. We are in the process of re-branding our website and creating new resources for teens across the country so that everyone can be inspired to stand up and take action.
