a blog about being a lorax to the world. a lorax is anyone/anything that stands as an advocate. the lorax is literally a smallish, brownish creature from Dr. Seuss's The Lorax. He "speaks for the trees, for the trees have no tongues". the ending quote always resonates with my humanitarian efforts, "unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot; nothing's going to get better. its not."

Educating the Arts
I was able to travel to a local middle school and work with a representative from The Light Factory. The students learned some photography skills and used their newly honed skills to interpret their idea of "courage" and portray that in photographs. they then presented their photographs in a presentation along with presentations from the rest of the middle school as well. I loved getting to know the kids and learning their styles and what their stories are and how they think courage is shown.
