“People Are People No Matter Their Struggles in Life”

by | Jan 26, 2012

In addition to having my dream job with Hunger Free Colorado, I’m so honored to also serve on the Board of SAME Café.  Just what an honor this is becomes apparent when I have the opportunity to hear Libby and Brad Birky talk about why they started SAME Café and what it means to them.  Libby rocked the house at the TEDx MileHighSalon event, making us all reflect on how we think of “community” and the role we play in our community.  It made me realize how blessed I am to do the work I do and recognize she’s right – you can’t “give back” to your community unless you are truly part of the community  – and value all members of your community and their contribution.
