![]() Hello there,
My name is Jenny Isaacs and I have the privilege of being the Director of Heart to Heart. I want to thank you for getting yourself to our 2017 Heart to Heart crowdfunding page. There’s a good chance that if you are reading this, you or someone you know believes that Heart to Heart can make a difference in the world. This might be too cheesy, but there’s a song, originally sung by Jackie DeShannon in 1965, that’s coming to my mind a lot these days – maybe you know it? The chorus goes like this: What the world needs now is love, sweet love It’s the only thing that there’s just too little of What the world needs now is love, sweet love No not just for some but for everyone The rise of xenophobia, Islamophobia, Anti-Semitism, and hate in so many other forms this year has been astounding. It is clear that now is a moment in which we must come together to stand for the values embodied by Heart to Heart of mutual trust, respect, understanding, and of course, love. It’s a time to take action and support initiatives like Heart to Heart that are doing the hard work of creating that love in the world for everyone. I hope you will join me in supporting this campaign by making a donation and taking the time to ask others to do the same. Together we can engage, inspire, and support a new group of 20 youth who have the potential to bring their communities together around a vision for a shared future. We know what happens if we do nothing, this is our chance to something, so please, be our partner in creating more love. ~ Jenny What we need & what you GetSO HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:
