Advocate - Lend Your Voice
Advocacy is about more than signing petitions or writing letters to elected officials. It’s about understanding the issues, speaking up and promoting them to your family, friends and neighbors. When you advocate, you lend your voice to those least able to speak for themselves. You champion a cause in which you believe and you make a difference not just for today, but for generations to come.
