Change.org

I got this e-mail today and it really made my day.
Lauren -
2012 was the year Seventeen Magazine agreed to stop photoshopping their models. It was the year Canadian political party leaders nominated Malala Yousafzai for the Nobel Peace Prize, the year Amazon stopped selling whale and dolphin meat, the year Trayvon Martin's parents got justice for their son.
You and 25 million people won all of these victories -- and thousands more -- by starting, signing, and sharing petitions on Change.org. You did it by taking a few moments out of your life to change the course of someone else's. Take a look:


Go take a look at the site if you want to make a difference. Because you CAN make a difference! I'm so happy I could be a part of the petition for Amazon to stop selling whale and dolphin meat. They have so many petitions you can be a part of and you can also start your own.
Go today and sign at least one petition!
This one breaks my heart :

  1. It's always good to be reminded that we DO have a voice and can change the world. Good for you by adding your name to that petition. Good grief i didnt even know Amazon was selling whale and dolphin meat.

    1. Thank you! I know, I'm shocked by most of the things I find petitions for.
