Shine On [59]

I have found the absolute perfect inspiration for this blog. It's called the Shine Project and it's........ well basically the exact same thing that I'm doing, just with a bit of a different character. It was started by a woman named Ashley exactly a year before I started my project. Her goal was to have a place where the world could come to be inspired and a place that would inspire change. Sound familiar? You can read more about the beginnings and progress of the Shine Project on her blog: here. 

I think the Pursuit of Happiness post might be my favorite of the ones I've read so far and I know where all of my loose change is going from now on (remember this post and this one?). Ashley started a Change4Change campaign and I love her idea of making cute little jars and collecting spare change in them until there's $100 worth. The best part of the project is that the money goes to her Shine Scholarship Project, which helps inner city high school students afford their first year of college.

So, as Ashley and the Kooks say:
