Impact of ABC4All Mentor Volunteers on Local Communities

The progress of the collective work of ABC4All Mentor volunteers can be reported as outstanding!
ABC4All Mentors can pledge commitment to this cause: A Better Community for All: "Commitment to work with ABC4All Mentors towards improvement in local communities throughout the world."
Some important developments include::
Local ABC4All Community Empowerment in Somaliland: http://abc4all.net/abc4allsomalia.htm Here local people took it upon themselves to create an all-day event. One result was the creation of 22 educational scholarships every year for children!
The formation of Local ABC4All efforts anywhere in the world: Four have already started formally: Ghana, Nigeria, Sierra Leone and Kenya: http://abc4all.net/localabc4all.html
We are grateful indeed that a recent referral by one ABC4All Mentor of another has resulted in the new ABC4All Mentor volunteering to create a series of amazing videos for ABC4All that now appear on ABC4All web pages in a variety of locations. More such videos are in the works!
BUT -- One of the most creative and dynamic contributions by our new "ABC4All Video Information Specialist (ABC4AllVIS)" is also now available. It is not a video! It is a "COLLAGE."
In this capacity, she has created the name, "YUBUPA" for herself to reference the original referring party (YUel Bhatti, Pakistan), ABC4All Co-Founder (BUrt Danet) and herself as ABC4AllVIS (PAt)!
So YUBUPA has created the "ABC4All Collage!" http://abc4all.net/collage.htm
Here we have an excellent example of an ABC4All Mentor's original creativity being shared with others. It is possible for ANY ABC4All Mentor to bring their own contribution to the forefront of our collective attention as we move together to improve local and global conditions, to restore HOPE in the world, to create PEACE and HARMONY as we celebrate UNITY across DIVERSITY.
An original healing song, "LEND A HAND," created by Ben Mackenzie and John Greenfield for ABC4All serves as a stimulus for anyone to ask how they might want to contribute. http://abc4all.net/070707.htm (audio/lyrics) and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCCxgaf20To (video including the ABC4All Global Toast: http://abc4all.net/globaltoast.htm
Above all, it is hoped that through these efforts and those yet to come, it will be possible to spread the ability to improve self-esteem of the participants AND to create opportunities in the world that have not existed before. In short, can we all have more FUN in living? http://abc4all.net/opportunity.htm
One word sums up ABC4All Mentor Volunteerism: JOY!
Respectfully,
Burton Danet, Ph.D., Co-Founder, ABC4All
