In Huffington Post, “Why Doing Good Is Sexy”:
Doing good has never been hotter. Everybody’s talking about their desire to make a difference, and volunteerism and civic participation are suddenly as high as they were in the 1960s. This fact is not lost on the two U.S. presidential candidates, who have made public service a centerpiece of their platforms.
If Alan Khazei is right, it’s about to get even more exciting. We’re about to see a renaissance of altruism across the United States and around the world.
The article’s all about Be the Change, and our goals that created ServiceNation. The author’s got a challenge, though:
And here’s a special offer. I will send a free copy of my book — WE ARE THE NEW RADICALS: A Manifesto for Reinventing Yourself and Saving the World (McGraw-Hill, New York) — to the first person who shares a true story of someone using the question, “Where do you serve?” as a pick-up line. Because then we’ll know for sure that this movement is red hot.
Anyone got a story?
