Turning Passion to Organization

Having visualized this organization for the past few years and having created a business plan around it at Harvard, I can see what it looks like at the end of this voyage. Just like for many people who attempt to create organizations and enterprises, for me, the voyage itself is still a blur.
Come 2010. I enter a new era in life. I have behind me over twelve years of experience in Adult Education, a graduate degree from a premium university, and a passion for a population that’s been highly ignored and neglected in American society: low-wage workers and low-skilled immigrants. I have many role models in the arena of social entrepreneurship, and I have met many more during my term as a fellow in social entrepreneurship. THey have many things in common, but one stood as the backbone of action against a constant barrage of discouraging forces: PASSION.
The need to believe. The need to take action. The need to take that dream into something meaningful and life-changing. The need to create and innovate.
So this year is the beginning of something new for me. I will take my dream– {We Speak America} — to the next level. Small steps. Big dreams.
