Changing the World

The exciting news from this week is that our fundraising efforts topped $10,000.00 this week. We've received more support than I ever thought possible. So many people are seeing our site and supporting this idea that I'm starting to actually believe we can do this!
I never really thought I could change the world. Now I've realized from this project that it is possible for one person to change the world, but you can't do it alone, no matter how inspired the idea. It takes an inspired idea, faith in your abilities, the willingness to work incredibly hard, and the support of family, friends, and strangers who buy into it.
Changing the world is like rolling a snowball. The person with the inspired idea starts it, and keeps it going, but everyone else takes a turn rolling it and keeping it going. Changing the world truly is a community effort. Thanks, everyone, for helping to roll the snowball.
