Welcome to Giraffe Heroes Country
New Giraffe honoree Fred Mednick stepped right off a cliff when he realized the potential of teachers around
the world to bring positive change to their communities. He left an ideal job as headmaster of a private school
and started Teachers Without Borders, an internet conduit of information, both academic and social, and a way for
teachers around the world to network with each other. Read all about it in his profile at giraffe.org.
There's a new quote up on the Giraffe postcard, ready to send inspiration to your friends and family.
Project President John Graham just keynoted the People to People Student Ambassadors Conference in Orlando, then
led an array of workshops for the teen attendees. "Each one of them went back home with a complete plan for
solving some problem in their community that was important to them," he reports. "I'm confident they'll
carry out those plans. And I went home optimistic about young people in America. There's great energy and idealism
out there and it was immensely satisfying to show so many great kids how to use Giraffe action techniques to make
a difference."
YOU can make a difference here at Giraffe HQ. The summer is always our driest time for funding and income. Help
keep the lights burning and the work going out into the world.
