Color Blind

This world is seen as what people want it to be, not for what it truly is. Color Blind solves the fundamental problems of the many founding societies that bring up controversy and malevolence.

Help in Africa

I am trying to help people in Africa who have diseases and need medical help.

St. Phillips Orphanage

St Phillips is an orphanage started by Rev. Peter, located in the slums of Degoretti. Nairobi, Kenya. Currently Rev. Peter has 23 orphans and can not accept any more until he can find more space and is able to ensure just one meal a day for his kids. I am working with my mother who is living in kenya. to raise money and necessities that rev. peter needs for the children in his orphanage. These children deserve the same opportunities as we have here in the unites states of America.

STDs continue to spread

U.S. researchers reported this week that the reluctance to talk about sex and protection has led to an increase in STD infections, especially among vulnerable teens.

Chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis infections continue to spread in the United States, according to the latest statistics.

John Douglas, director of the division of sexually transmitted diseases at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said the U.S. has among the highest rates of STDs of any developed country in the world.

Tactics of Hope

Whether it was during my summer in Africa working to raise educational awareness among women about HIV/AIDS at health clinics, churches, and schools, or while visiting the orphanages in Phnom Peng, Cambodia, or helping to build a community plaza in Greece in honor of a young girl whose death had recently brought the town closer together...in all of these experiences, the greatest problem repeatedly I experienced among volunteers, NGO staffers, think tank policy advocates, social entrepreneurs, and other change makers is an information barrier.

Being a Part of NOH8

On November 4th of 2008, Proposition 8 was passed which amended the state Constitution to ban same-sex marriage. NOH8 is a silent protest created by famous photographer Adam Bouska and his partener Jeff Parshley in response to the passing of Proposition 8. Those who support Marriage Equality are in these NOH8 photos with duct tape over their mouths to symbolize their voice not being heard and being silenced, and NOH8 (meaning No Hate) is painted on their cheek in protest. I wanted to be a part of this in support of a family member and some of my closest friends.

Healing Emotional Trauma

We are trying to utilize contemporary forms of music history, english, production and healing with musical forms. The lack of understanding about music and its power remain a problem in society and with this lack of information we see the abuse of music to inhibit emotions.
