Checking in...

I'm checking in once again to see how everyone is doing. June was a busy month for us here in the southern region. We had an MMH project going each weekend and saw lots accomplished for our cause! Thanks to all of you for pushing through June with me!

There has been tons of fantastic Twitter activity happening on behalf of Project MMH! If you aren't already a part of the Twitter Team, please contact dreama@projectmmh.org and she'll add you to the team e-mail list which will keep you up-to-date on the latest plan of action over on Twitter.

Speaking of Twitter... a while back, Dreama posted a tweet about her "MMH goal for the week." I love that idea! When our Street Teams were first formed, us regional leaders spent some time talking with Jimmy and the national leadership team about our hopes and dreams for this project. Writing these ideas down and sharing them with others has helped keep me accountable to my goals, and has helped me to see them begin taking shape. So much has already been accomplished - and we're not slowing down!

One of my dreams is to see a dedicated team of local MMHers who will committ to one day a month of service at a local facility. We had such a great experience at our service project in Louisville last month - just think about the relationships we could build with each other on our team and those out in our community if we worked together consistently! To take that dream a step further... what if other Street Teamers in our region connected with a team of volunteers in their own community and dedicated themselves to a local facility in their area? Of course these are dreams that will take time to shape and establish, but we can begin working toward them today!

So, what about you? What are some of your own hopes and dreams for Project MMH? What do you want to see accomplished for teens in foster care? What steps can we take today to help us reach those goals?

We do have an MMH Message Board, which I have to admit I don't spend much time looking at. But maybe that would be a good place for us to begin connecting with each other. It'd be a good place for you to find out which Street Teamers in your state would be interested in joining forces with you on a project or event. Share what YOUR dreams are for Project MMH!

I hope you're all having a fabulous week! Keep dreaming big dreams and let's make them a reality!
