Bio

Hi! My name is Morgan. I am part of the Disability Awareness Team. Our goal is to help the deaf and blind in the bay area community. I joined this youth group earlier this year, and I enjoy all the things that we do. I am learning sign language and braille so I can communicate with the people I am trying to help. I am glad that I have the oppurtunity to make a difference.

Goals

  • I have started a venture and want to share insights
  • I want to influence other people to take time out of their day to change someone's life for the better.

    Hey there! I just read your blog. (Yes, I'm aware that blog was written a while ago). Anyway, the internet is a great way to publicize and market your venture. So what are things that you have done to raise awareness about DAT? What has worked and what hasn't?

    Another great way to publicize and market it to like-minded young people is to attend the National Youth Venture Summit! I just wanted to let you know about it in case no one contacted you yet. It's the first-ever gathering of young changemakers, and it'll be in DC July 17-20. There is financial assistance for YV alumni to attend! Make sure you check it out. It'll be the perfect opportunity for you to meet people you've been in contact with on GenV.net, like JJ Express, and to exchange ideas with people who are passionate about change. Let me or Kristin know if you have any questions about it! ^_^

    Hi Morgan,
    i live in maryland so, actually across the country from you but I'm sure we can figure something out. i'm also sure I can get people from my school interested in your venture...would you be willing to work with people through internet or over the phone since we're so far away from each other? you can order a copy of our magazine online at www.jjexpress.sitesled.com/subscribe or you can send us a check...we just charge enough to barely cover the printing costs. i can also send you brochures to show other people about what's behind the magazine. email me at editor.jjexpress@gmail.com if you want to talk some more! :)
    take care,
    jenny
