SplashLife Educates and Provides Opportunities to Reach Out

I recently heard Whoopi Goldberg talk about Splash Life, an organization focused on reaching young adults, similar to how AARP reaches the rest of us old folks.  

The founder Melissa Helmbrecht Martin started the organization to help youth who are scared about the economic struggles our country is facing and who are directly impacted or want to reach out and help those in need. 

One of the ways you can help is with EDAR – everyone deserves a roof.  Portable canvas “homes” have been developed to ensure that those who are homeless have shelter to keep out the elements.  You can make a donation or sponsor a portion of the portable home by purchasing a roof, frame, mattress or other elements of the unit.  It is a tangible way you can give back to the growing number of Americas who are on the street without a roof.

Check out SplashLife, follow them on Twitter and learn how you can take part to help your neighbors who are less fortunate.
