"Having traveled across America and to 24 counties as the first-ever UN Youth Champion, Iâ€™m inspired by the desire of young people everywhere to make the world a better place. At GimmeMoâ€™, our goal is to build a global community of enlightened young people â€” those who wish to be the change they wish to see in the world, to borrow a phrase from Gandhi â€” and to raise awareness surrounding some of the biggest challenges that Millennials face both in the U.S. and around the world."

Perhaps it was a certain naivete that made them think so. But it is certainly our loss that we cannot.”
