Recently, a handful of volunteers made time in their busy schedules to represent the interests of those living in extreme poverty. Representing ONE Salt Lake were Kate, Laura, Suzanne, Drew, and me. We met with senior advisors to Senator Robert Bennett, Jessica Christopher and Mary Maughn. They were inspired by what we are doing and impressed with the numbers that ONE has behind it. We are on the list to meet with the senator himself.

It all comes down to each person doing that one extra thing to make a difference. Thank you to those of you who came today. For those who couldn’t make it, please watch for new opportunities to be involved in the coming weeks. I have a feeling this is a strong start to a new relationship that will bring rewards for everyone.

So congratulations to you all…but we still have far to go.

Stay committed, be informed, and keep in touch!
