It’s my turn to tell you about today’s volunteer opportunity! Being that I spend so much time in the video editing room, today’s opportunity is particularly fitting. ;)

I’ve made my personal selection for Day 4 of National Volunteer Week, and have dubbed it Epic Change YouTube Day! All I want you to do is go to our Epic Change channel on YouTube and check out a few of our videos. I hope you’ll rate, favorite & comment as well, because not only does this help us spread the word via YouTube, but it also helps us create better videos. So don’t be shy and let us know what you think, whether positive or negative; we can take it.

I also want to encourage you to subscribe to our channel so you’ll automatically know when we’ve added a new video. All you have to do is click on the yellow “Subscribe” button on our channel, pretty simple. Of course, if you don’t already have a login for YouTube, you’ll need to get one, but that’s pretty painless. Call me at 415.748.2152 and I’ll personally walk you through it.

To get started, these are my personal faves:

1. This video is about Gideon, a 4th-grader at Shepherds Junior school. You really have to hear him describe his future career & his gratitude; he’s awesome.
2. This video is a compelling conversation we had with Gideon’s father, Mr. Gidori. He talks about the school, his son and his hopes for the future of his continent; it’s probably one of the most interesting conversations I have ever heard.
3. This video explains our mission & the results you’ve made possible so far. This is great if you want to get a better understanding of our organization and what we’re up to in Tanzania.

We’ve also got an Epic Change Kids Group where you can see some of the incredibly interesting videos that some of the kids in America are sharing with their Tanzanian friends.

I hope you enjoy the videos, and will pass at least one along to a friend or colleague. We’ll be back again tomorrow with Friday’s volunteer opportunity.
