67 Tweeps Make a Difference – part 2

I get inspired by the people and the things they create to make the world better. As I said in the last post, I got excited about the idea of introducing you to some of them. Here’s “Part 2” of my list of “67 People, Programs, Products or Ideas that Make a Difference”.

21. Lolly Daskal brings together a remarkable group of people through a weekly Twitter chat called “lead from within.”
22. This author calls a stepmom a “noble woman who cares for and nurtures her husband’s children.” There’s also a free e-book available on her site.
23. Junior Achievement teaches kids financial literacy. Here’s a link to one of my favorite chapters.
24. Andrew Vachss represents children and youth exclusively. He also writes books that give an incredible look at a part of the world most people would rather pretend does not exist.
25. Shiv is a poet & composer I follow on Twitter. He shares incredibly kind, uplifting energy.
