Movies- SALT

I got treated to dinner and a movie, by my sisters last night. We went to go see SALT starring Angelina Jolie. I actually enjoyed the movie. It had some MR. & MRS. Smith action going on in there. But Angelina did her thing. If you enjoy her acting, actions, and a little bit of politics then you will definitely dig with film.

Drive Responsibly

Unsafe Driving... - The best video clips are here

I'm always looking to support for the case. I found this video on one of my friend's facebook profiles and this is no joke. I personally have no desire to drive because the lack of responsibility some drivers don't owe up to when they get behind the wheel. I know this scene all too well. Last year I was in a horrible accident because of reckless driving, that was preventable. I was in the back in the smashed down part. I am so blessed that all our lives were spared, and I use that as motivation to follow my dreams because I know I have a purpose here. I think this might be my next project/ campaign. This is something we all can do to make the world a better and safer place, DRIVE SAFELY!!!

Coming Into My Own- Progression

As I look through my blog I notice that there is a lot of graphics, and less talk. Normally I'm all for the small talk, and commentary along with each piece but that hasn't been the case lately. For once in a long time I am doing what I always said I would do. There isn't much to say when your are showing results. My work speaks for itself. I was spent the last couple months educating myself on business, networking, and design. Come January at the launch I hope that all my hard work is evident. 
I don't have all the resources I need right in my hand, or even the best plan or strategy set in stone. What I am doing is using the resources I do have, and putting them in overdrive. I have been lucky to connect with some people that are focus and driven in their given field. I learned that receiving help could be a huge asset. People always want to be apart of something. Something could be anything, but especially something that is moving in the right direction. 
There is still so much work to do, and so much I would like to accomplish with this line, and this year. This line is the beginning of my movement, my entry way to progression and success. It is important that in these next few months I build a brand, a brand I can grow with and live by. This is the start of something great. All I ever wanted to do was be relevant. 

So I am Living Ambitious through Meaningful Existence through my line, designs, and action.

The Ten Ten Project

What does The 1010 Project do?

The 1010 Project is a nonprofit organization that provides income-generating grants to indigenous development partners in Kenya and raises awareness in the United States on behalf of the global poor.

Our strategy is simple.

We serve to advocate for and empower the work of social entrepreneurs. A social entrepreneur is someone who recognizes a social problem and uses his or her own initiative to organize, create, and manage a venture to make positive social change.

Where does the organization’s name come from?

The 1010 Project derives its name from John 10:10, where Jesus states, “The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but I have come so that you might have life, life to the full.” The 1010 Project believes that poverty steals, kills, and destroys life all over the world, and it should be the work of people of faith to alleviate global poverty. The 1010 Project is not registered as a religious organization, nor does it restrict its aid and/or personnel to those of a specific creed. That being said, it is a faith-motivated organization, made up of some people who are putting their faith into action by serving alongside the poor. The 1010 Project is a humanitarian and advocacy organization.

Why were we created?

Specifically, this nonprofit organization is formed to:

Research specific impoverished regions through engagement with those living in poverty, network with other organizations committed to alleviating poverty, and explore micro-development strategies;
Educate those in affluent countries on the issues impoverished peoples face through communicating their needs, providing educational resources, and motivating groups and individuals to take action;
Connect the needs of impoverished regions with the resources of potential donors by partnering with existing projects, initiating new projects, and creating opportunities for donors to engage personally;
Solicit financial support and other forms of involvement from individuals and groups in the United States and abroad who support our mission;
Maintain an attitude of service in the research, development, and implementation of any projects.
What are our values?

Poverty Matters

We believe that the poverty of our global neighbors should be on our hearts and minds as we go about daily life. Because our choices have the power to both negatively and positively impact others around the planet, we must be proactive in addressing global poverty.

Relationship Matters

It is neither adequate nor effective enough to simply deliver aid; entering into a relationship with those we are serving and those who serve us is imperative. These relationships allow us to see that the delivery of aid and assistance is a reciprocal act. There is much we have to learn and understand from our global neighbors. In as such, we are intentional about investing the time, energy, and overall effort in building friendships across borders and cultures.

Justice Matters

The existence of poverty on a globe of plenty runs counter to our notions of justice. That much of the world’s resources are consumed by a few while the rest of the world struggles for daily survival is an injustice that can and must be corrected. Poverty is a human rights issue because adequate food, clean water, shelter, health care, education, and employment are all attainable for every member of humanity.

Community Matters

Never before have communities been able to connect globally with one another with such ease and efficiency. Globalization and communication technologies have created a world of unprecedented interconnectedness and interdependence. However, the global poor remain marginalized and are not recipients of the benefits that globalization and global economic growth afford.
