Why are you participating?

It's important for people to realize that there's more than meets the eye. I've surprised myself so much lately by simply getting to know people regardless of their background. Appreciating what makes them unique affirms their dignity and also helps me grow as an individual.

I have helped raise money for the Make A Wish foundation. It helps really sick kids get a wish granted in life.
