We fundamentally believe that knowledge yields potential but action is where real power is.

“Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.” - Anton Chekov

“Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.” - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

To kick off the process of acting with what you learn here, I’ll share this web site with you:

The Changemakers initiative aims to identify the leading activists, elected officials, authors, bloggers, actors and thought leaders who have the greatest capacity to spark change on issues of importance.

Selected Changemakers will be invited to tap into Change.org’s network of more than a million readers and activists and thousands of nonprofit and blog partners to drive further social action.

On the Change.org web site, you can explore the work of an organization that seeks to inform us about real people today who are having positive impacts on the lives of others. One way you can get involved is to learn about their Changemakers and provide feedback with your votes. Then we invite you to explore each person’s work – to find how you can get contribute further or act in a similar way within your community.
