HERE IS MY CHALLENGE TO YOU:
DO MORE. JUST A LITTLE. I DARE YOU.
Consider my challenge: I challenge you to somehow change your daily life to include active participation in the political process. The fun part is that you get to define active participation for your own life – as long as you’re doing more than what you have been.
EMPOWER YOURSELF. EMPOWER OTHERS. DON'T SIT BACK. GET ENGAGED. CARE. ACTIVELY CARE. SHOW YOUR CARE. JAM ON IT. GET INTO IT.
HanBan, "we are the ones that we've been waiting for"
So I don't know if there's a better method to contribute to the blog (without having admin access - potentially?) but in the meantime I would like to share a quick story about my friend Erin.
She has also recently been published for her work starting and running a Right to Play (RTP) group at Laurier. RTP is a young organization that fosters better environments through sport. I really encourage everyone to see what they do globally, but on a local scale (grassroots baby) - Erin has championed the cause and brought together a community of people who are giving their time weekly now to increase awareness for the group.
Anyway, I think you can get a sense of what she's done via the article but in a nutshell, Erin (although presently unaware of the blog), has taken the challenge and made some action happen.
That's interesting about your friend's friend Erin. I contacted Right to Play when I worked for an Organization called the Ontario Aboriginal Sport Circle and they never got back to me.
I've wondered about starting a Right to Play for Aboriginal communities in Canada and the U.S....
