You can check out last year's Change the World video. Thank you Tia McNaughton, Kyle Franck, and John Gearheart! Or see the new logo: Thank you Daniel Holmes! But I'm also working on students starting their projects this year and still looking for a few more mentors. Anyone an expert on homeless in the Eel River Valley, perhaps someone from River Life Foundation? I'm also looking for someone who knows about translation volunteering, someone who specializes in health care for the Spanish-speaking community, and someone wanting to take on a benefit concert for music education for our area schools.
