Focus - Day One
Wednesday afternoon, a few of us got together to brainstorm for the summer, and... to get thoroughly distracted a dozen times along the way.
Oh! Shiny!
We learned that, in a pinch, coffee straws work to spread peanut butter; these guys have kept a mental log of every person who is homeless in their parts of Tri-town and where they tend to hang out; they care about clean water, malaria prevention, and hunger; they want to put on a 30 Hour Famine; and, they legitimately want to be involved with people who are homeless.
We're meeting again on Monday to make some of their ideas come to life.
Now, we just need to find an easy way to explain it all when they're trying to invite friends!
