If you really want to be inspired, check out Dr. Nancy Peddle who started the LemonAid Fund, an independent, not-for-profit project dedicated to aiding the children of Serra Leone and teaching them the value of giving back.  This amazing organization supports people who believe in their own abilities to create positive change, despite any hardship or injustice they may experience… people who take action on their own behalf, to turn the “lemons” in their lives, into “lemonade."

The ultimate aim of LemonAid is to be part of a global campaign to "heal this broken world" now divided by poverty, privilege and power.   Great stuff, check them out!
