So we got to talking about things we like to do, and I mentioned my love of volunteering and traveling. As luck would have it, she founded a non-profit organization that would allow me to do both things at once: Classroom to Life aims to provide educational travel opportunities to inner city youth 9-13 years old who typically don't have the chance to travel outside of their local communities.
How awesome is that? Check out her site at http://www.classroomtolife.org and if you have wanderlust and love to volunteer, complete an application form while you're there. There's nothing more phenomenal than watching a child discover the world.
Be excellent!
