I just spent three amazing days in New York attending the Social Good Summit. My brain is full, and I have lots to share. For now, I share this photo collage.

Thanks, Ashley. My brain is so full right now. It’s going to take a few days to recover, I think. But I have lots to share!

It was, Michelle. And I got into the UN Headquarters. How cool is that?
I loved following along on Facebook. Looks like a wonderful experience and your plane picture was so stunning! I’ll stay tuned for more.
Thanks, Tamara. There was just so much going on. It was amazing. I might have to use that airplane photo for a future WW. 🙂

I just LOVE how you take time to invest in yourself/your blog and also how you share. You’re incredible!
sorry that you were having troubles on my website…I never quite know what to do when that happens. But, I know that if it persists, I’ll get on the phone with my host.
In any case, it’s always wonderful to see you. I hope your wednesday is good! HUGS
It’s always wonderful to see you too, Cyndi! It makes me happy when people enjoy what I share. It was amazing to be with so many other social good bloggers in one place. You should try to go next year! 🙂
Sounds pretty interesting! Can’t wait to hear about it!
It was a very inspiring trip. It really showed me that anyone can make a difference in the world.
YAY FOR YOU!!!!! I have been thinking about you all week!! I just KNOW you are buzzing with so much in your amazing mind, taking it all in, overwhelmed and excited and oozing with adrenalin!! I can’t wait to hear ALL about it, Jen!! 🙂
I love that you were thinking of me, Chris. It was so amazing. On Monday we were running all over the city going to events, from a luncheon with Save the Children, Gates Foundation and One.org to the UN headquarters for a factivism pane. So much to take in!
