Think of someone making a difference in the world. That person could be you. In her thought provoking talk, Amber Smith asks us to volunteer and bring friends along.  Listen to Amber remind us that we already have the permission and authority to tidy up our little corner of earth.  Who knows you could even meet the love of your life. Amber Smith is the founder and Executive Director of Activate Good, a nonprofit with a mission to inspire locals to volunteer for causes around the Triangle. Amber launched Activate Good in 2005 following a two and a half month road trip around the country during which she and her best friend volunteered in over 20 states. Today, Activate Good has facilitated almost 50,000 volunteer connections to hundreds of nonprofits and empowers youth to become leaders and volunteers. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
