Why I’m Here

I am here to help ThinkMtv spread the word about changing the world and encourage all to participate in community service, whether it is by joining  an Americorps program like City Year, or donating a few bucks to an organization they support. Also, I want to help MTV encourage people to speak their minds on different issues, as well as share their experiences in serving their community on a local, national, or international level. AIM Screenname is HappyDavie06
