A good use for twitter?
I have previously shared my uncertainty about twitter but I may have to rethink my position.
It takes more than a good structure
As a result of the current economic times there are a lot of organizations going through restructuring processes. If you are involved in a restructuring process remember that people trump structure every time. A good structure can make good people even better but won't make bad people good. Good people can make a bad structure work but bad people will make even the best structure dysfunctional.
Do you have a restructuring story? Did it solve the problem?

Smile
I met Kent Robson recently when he reached out to us after a mutual friend shared the Connor's House story with him. Kent writes a blog called eSentialz where he showcases and supports people who are overcoming life's challenges by telling their story so that others may be inspired. Kent just published a great story about Connor (yes I am biased and don't apologize for that) called Smile. After you read this beautiful story take some time to be inspired by some of the other amazing people Kent has profiled and sign up for his updates, he has some great stories in the works.
Takes All Types
If you have been following either this blog or Connor's story for any length of time you know that Deb and I are both huge supporters of blood donation and that Connor's House has partnered with The Blood Center of New Jersey (BCNJ) to help raise awareness about the need for blood donors and host blood drives in our local community.
BCNJ recently partnered with Takes all Types to help build a new generation of blood donors. Takes All Types (TAT) is a not-for-profit that uses online social networks to connect a new generation of blood donors to the blood collection organizations who urgently need them.
You can use TAT social networking tools to learn about area blood drives and to promote the initiative throughout your own social network by educating your friends about the importance of blood donation and recruiting new donors.
TAT enables caring people to quickly and conveniently volunteer as blood donors, show the world their proud participation and urge their friends to donate too. One in three of us will need a blood transfusion at some point in our lives so take a minute to invite some friends – make sure that the blood is there when it is needed to save someone’s life.

Sam Adams (more than just beer)
I got an email from a doctor today who was referred to Connor's House by a family we are currently supporting. He was interested in talking about a new program he is starting to provide care coordination services for children with complex medical needs. The following quote was on the bottom of his email
"It does not take a majority to prevail...but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men" Samuel AdamsThe quote alone made me want to talk to him and learn more about his program.
