Very inspirational:
I look for the organizations that engage everyday citizens in making their world a better place. I personally support agencies that say, yes you are a vital part of the solution. Cora Tomalinas, or Manang Cora (Tagalog term of respect for “Big sister”), has always been an inspiration because I always knew she was much more than “just parent” as she put it. As parents, we instinctively know that no one is “just a parent” - we are advocates, health assesors, cheerleaders, and educators. Manang Cora is a trained PACT leader (People Acting in Community Together). There are a million reasons why I believe in the change this organization advocates for. But mostly it is because as organizers, they believe that everyday people make difference and that by sharing their stories, we all benefit and all find common ground…
The video in this post is inspirational too.
