"Just Like You"

emily_smith — Sun, 16 Mar 2008 23:31:56 -0500

I am beginning a project. The project name is not set as of now, and probably won't be until it is finally complete. I have lived and visited many areas with an outrageous homeless population that is hated, ignored, and looked down on. I would like to start this project by getting a nice recorder (continuous recording, battery life, and direct computer upload) and recording life stories from homeless men, women, and children around the United States. I would like to be able to offer them some money but I really do not have the resources myself.

Help launch www.TeenAmbition.org, the online magazine for people who have dreams, goals, and a desire to make a difference. TeenAmbition provides a forum for young writers, business owners, and community leaders to share their stories.

This project was started to help young adults improve their financial literacy. Anyone can learn about money, business, and the economy. These topics impact everyone’s lives, yet few people take the time to understand them. A fundamental knowledge of these issues can make it much easier to succeed in almost any venture.

Read Write Action!

gabbyt123 — Wed, 13 Jun 2007 15:27:57 -0500

To see is to understand, to understand is to think, to think is to express, and to express is to grow. Our children aren't growing. They aren't being taught to think. What they take in at school has no apparent relationship to their reality. Knowledge, information, and even wisdom can be found everywhere. But, our kids must be taught to see it. They need to be able to see that they can learn, create, and that the learning process can be fun.

Write a play about equality

laureng — Mon, 16 Oct 2006 10:44:20 -0500

Sometimes you trip, sometimes your hair looks funny, and sometimes you say the wrong thing at the wrong time. Everyone knows what it's like to be made fun of, but sometimes this can get out of hand. Write a play that addresses equality and respect.
