Today has been a remarkable day. It’s been a day of reminders, heart warming reminders of the power of contribution.
To clarify, it’s not always tangible contributions that make a difference. Sometimes, it’s just knowing people are still by our side, as eager to see our vision transform into a reality as we are. It’s that which has left me inspired today.
You see, when my brother Lincoln, who wanted to build a house for a less fortunate family in Canberra, and I, who wanted to build an orphanage for children in Africa, had our first conversation about our dream, we were nothing more than, well, lone nuts with a very big dream—the raize the roof dream.
As we, and our extraordinary volunteers, shared our vision with the Canberra community, our followers came, showing early support and making following raize the roof, the cool thing to do!
We’ve been sharing our vision even more widely as part of our 30 days: 30 ways to change challenge, and from nowhere, it seems we’re securing additional support and followers.
It’s best explained by this quick video:
Today, I say thanks to you all; our supporters, for continuing to ensure we never return to that first dance as the lone nut.
