Turn Your World Around

Posted by: gretchen on August 26, 2008 |

This showed up as a request in my email this morning.  I checked out the site and it looks really promising.  Best of luck to you Tara!!

I wanted to tell you about Tara Suri, a teen who has truly made a difference. Galvanized by sexism and poverty, at the age of thirteen, Tara founded Turn Your World Around, an organization that works to engage youth through unique social-change initiatives in the fight against global poverty. Turn Your World Around initiatives include HOPE (Helping Orphans Pursue Education), which works to increase access to basic necessities around the world, Connect-a-Kid, which seeks to increase access to technology in the developing world, and Shakti Girls, a program that empowers women and girls affected by sex-trafficking in India. The Turn Your World Around website, www.turnyourworldaround.org, is a unique social-change portal that helps teens turn their passions into action. Please consider featuring Tara’s organization so she can amplify her movement!
