After many years of helping kids by connecting them with Peace Prize laureates, Peace Jam's founders have been honored with a Nobel Peace Prize nomination themselves. If they win, they can be their own guests of honor- but hard workers and modest guy and gal that they are, they'll hardly even mention it and keep inviting amazing people like the Dalai Lama to speak in Denver. Okay, I have two things to add. I once heard Ivan speak about interviewing Daw Aung San Suu Kyi while she was under house arrest- apparently he was stopped at the airport after the interview and beaten by Burmese officials until he turned over his tapes. Lucky for him, he'd switched them with tapes of elephants in Thailand. Not so lucky for him, he had internal bleeding and was immediately hospitalized upon returning to America. I salute you, Ivan, Dawn, and all the Peace Jam founders- these are some incredibly BRAVE people.

So, want a whole review in 17 syllables! Peace Jam helps out…read morekids, teaching them to fight with peace. Our future leaders When the founder of Peace Jam, Ivan Suvanjieff, was walking home one day, he passed by a group of kids ditching school. They told him that school did nothing for them and that they had to pay the bills the best way they knew how. Wanting to dissuade them from their dangerous path, he talked to them about others who faced adversity and triumphed. One name, Desmond Tutu, came up, and the youths were exited to talk about what he had done. Ivan knew that if these kids could talk to Desmond Tutu, then maybe they would change their ways. After a whirlwind of excitement and a love story fit for a TV movie, Peace Jam was founded. They currently have 15 Nobel Peace Prize laureates that go around the world, meeting with children and discussing plans for peace. But it does not stop there, these kids then go out and enact their plans for world betterment. Sound exiting to you? Well if you are a parent, have your kid sign up. If you are in college, be a mentor, it is rewarding and fun! Anyone else, call to see if you can volunteer or make a donation. There are fees that can be expensive for both children and mentors, but call them if this is a problem and they may be able to help. Remember, when we are all old and tired, these are the people that will be taking care of us socially and globally, so lets make sure we train them right!

This non-profit organization fights poverty by collecting new and used shoes, how cool is that!…read more This allows them to create jobs in poor and disadvantaged communities via direct donations and by provisioning selected micro-enterprise programs. Since they began in 2006, they've distributed over 35 million pairs of shoes in 127 countries and all 50 US States, impressive! They are various ways to help, simply by donating your used shoes, volunteering or even traveling to meet micro-entrepreneurs. I recently volunteered just a few hours of my time, and with a few others, we loaded a truck with 27,642 pairs. The organizators were very good at providing feedback once our "job" was completed and it was great to know that with this truck they can provide a full year of food, shelter and education for 35 families (plus the fact that they don't end up in landfill). Families came to help, there were jobs for kids also! They were having fun climbing on the mountain of bags full of shoes and pushing them to the bottom so that they could easily be picked up by adults. Too often, giving to charities is very abstract, here you really see the impact of your help. In this case, the truck was then going to a warehouse in Wadley, AL, where the shoes are sorted before being shipped to entrepreneurs around the world. Just one step between donation and distribution, which allows to give a lot more to the person who needs it the most. Visit their website to find a way to donate shoes, and you can even host a shoe drive if you have more time.

So when Family Tree approached me they tell me that I was selected for permanent housing I mean I thought I hit the jackpot you know what I'm saying I was like finally my homeless rain has ended boy was I wrong these people will dry you out for information even information that you cannot remember they still want to know they want to know when you went to the bathroom what was the color did you flush did you wash your hands what towel did you use what kind of soap was it that you washed your hands with that's family tree for you talk about a stressful rude awakening that's what it is I can't stand this place and when you reach out to them on questions regarding permanent housing that they already told you fit the criteria for it takes the housing coordinator that's supposed to be working with you a week to answer your response and then when they do respond they blame it on their supervisors team and then want to add that the supervisors want more information and so forth it's a never ending battle with them.

Picture…read morea 1970's sitcom set that's been abandoned, dust-coated, and generously sprinkled with litter. Add a steady crowd of unhoused folks milling around the entrance, and voilà: ambiance! The POC staff lovingly call it "the White House"--not for its prestige, but for the complete absence of color anywhere, including leadership. And let's not forget the board of directors, a group so unrepresentative of the Denver Metro Area they might as well be assembled from a stock-photo catalog titled "Corporate Diversity: 1981 Edition." As for the shelters, well, if you're a person of color, maybe bring backup--or better yet, don't. Leadership there subscribes religiously to the Mean Girls: Passive Aggressive Edition handbook. Their white-savior energy could power a small city, and their grasp on reality is... aspirational. Staff quitting, ghosting, or disappearing into the void? Completely normal. Professionalism? Never heard of her. Then there's the CEO, who graces employees with long emails detailing his weekend adventures and lacrosse escapades--riveting stuff no one asked for. He never visits the shelters, but who needs firsthand knowledge when you've got vibes? The hiring standards? If it breathes, it qualifies. Maybe even if it doesn't. Leadership acts like the popular kids in high school--if the popular kids ran dilapidated shelters and were openly mocked by their own staff. And pay? Let's just say some clients are making out better financially. Best thing about working in Wheatridge? Imagine Kids Say the Darndest Things, but with adults lacking basic common sense. HR? A myth. Technology? They've mastered electricity--barely. Would I recommend Family Tree to peers? Only the ones I truly despise.

Gold Crown discriminates against anyone who is not Caucasian. Caucasian coaches are allowed to do…read moreand say as they please, while minorities are held to a different set of standards. Caucasian coaches are allowed to not follow Gold Crown rules and when shown video evidence of these disparities, their Sports Program Director, Mark Rusch, decides to "not allow" me to continue to volunteer as coach instead of addressing the disparities. My initial interaction with Mr. Rusch, following another instance of disparate treatment, was marked by his unprofessional demeanor. He addressed me in a condescending manner, wagging his finger in my face and lecturing me about service while having zero clue about my commitment to serving my community(the fact that I was already volunteering my time wasn't enough). All the while, as I was being talked to like a toddler, I addressed him in a professional manner, addressing him as sir and responding to his questions with "yes sir." Their executive director and his brother(also employed by gold crown) coach teams and allow their children to play dirty. The refs overlook their players but give the opposing teams technical fouls for defending themselves after being body checked twice. Referees are advised to pay increased attention to minority coaches due to the perception that we're more inclined to be a problem. This non-profit organization, which compensates its director over $200,000 annually, as revealed in their most recent tax filings, has a history of racial discrimination that they attempt to conceal and dismiss. Upon reviewing their website, it is evident that Gold Crown's decision-making staff lacks minority representation. This absence, particularly in a sport with the highest minority participation in the state, serves as compelling evidence suggesting that Gold Crown does not take diversity seriously and lacks the ability to have at least one impartial and representative voice on their team.
