Change Corps

The campaign and election of Barack Obama as our next President has inspired people all over the world.

A new generation of community organizers has stepped forward with a new spirit of determination in making change a reality where they live.

During the election I was honored to help start the Obama Volunteer Corps in Houston. Now that the election has been won, OVC has transitioned in Change Corps.

We are still determined to work for causes that need attention and can serve the communities where we live.

Change Corps began in Houston, Texas, but already we have individuals starting their own chapters in Louisiana and Virginia.

I’ve been devoting the bulk of my time to working with Change Corps, hence the reason this blog is so often not updated. So, for news about events happening around Houston and things you can do from home, check out the Change Corps website at www.changecorps.org.
