I had the opportunity at the beginning of September to attend the One X One Gala here in Toronto hosted by Matt Damon. It was an incredible gathering of some of the worlds greatest advocates for global change. The event showcased some of the amazing things going on all around the world to improve the lives of those with the greatest needs. OneXOne, the organization, was started by Joelle Berdugo Adler. What a heart. After going through her own experience with her husband she decided there was a need and that she could help to fill it. Her inner drive and will to see change has developed into an annual gathering in which millions are donated to worthy causes around the globe. All that is needed is a spark, and as the saying goes, by lighting a flame you unconsciously allow others to do the same, or something along those lines. So next time you think to yourself, 'I am only one person', the next thought that comes to mind should be, 'I, as an individual, can change the world'. It might not be simple, and it might take a lot of determination but I believe in you. To learn more about One X One click on the link
