Friday night, I had the pleasure of speaking at Donkey Coffee’s ONE concert featuring local talent in Athens, OH: Laura Nadeau, Zach Oden, Jake Householder and Victor Rasgaitis.

This hip fair trade coffee house has been a supporter of ONE for a long time now. I realized how much owner Chris Pyle is committed to educating his community to take action when I saw one of the coffee house’s rooms dedicated to social justice. In it you’ll find a ONE display and literature/posters from other great organizations that Donkey supports like Habitat for Humanity and World Vision.

But, back to the fun part—the music!! Check out this excerpt from Victor’s set and you’ll see how the musicians were able to incorporate the ONE message into the night.

This is just a reminder that whether you are a business owner, musician, teacher, student or none of the above…think outside of the box and you, too, can help make a positive impact on the world.

Here are some of the pictures: Donkey Coffee, Laura Nadeau performing, girl looking at ONE Vote brochure, and coffee mugs, Salinger and ONE.
