If you could change the world, would you?

What does it take to make real positive change? At times the world's problems seem so big and insurmountable. What can one person do? Yesterday my munchkin and I saw the mega hit Marvel's Black Panther, along with the rest of the world it seems. I'm not too big on superhero movies. They always seem a bit out of touch to me. 

With the recent shooting in Broward county Florida and so much chaos around the world it feels safe and easy to bury our heads and worry about our own problems and issues at home. 

Maybe this is the real problem.

You don't need a super suit of an other worldly mineral to be a hero. It starts with you. What can one person do? As it turns out, one person can do a lot.

Brand Ambassador, Laura Ramirez is more than a model. She is also a student who is calling attention to the crisis that is happening in her home country of Venezuela. Her home country is experiencing over 4000% inflation, leaving grocery stores empty and devoid of food. Often under-reported in the news, this human crisis has been going on for some time. How long should this suffering last?

If you live in the Atlanta area, Laura is accepting non-perishable food and clothing donations. Also, she has set up a gofundme here, to help provide for people in need. In a country where $3 USD is the average minimum wage per month, even small donations can save lives.

 

You don't have to be a superhero, to do the work on one.

Please give today. https://www.gofundme.com/55roagw
