city year!

very short post here -- i just got into work

I got to penn station 15-20 minutes ago (on my god we killed like 4 trees and one plastic tree with the amount of paper they used to wrap up my omelet and cup of watermelon) and i accidentally got out on 34th and 8th instead of 33th and 7th so my patience wore down quickly and i got a cab (the last 2 days i walked to union square).

Anyways the cab driver was taking me over on 22nd between 6th and 5th and I looked over and saw two people in City Year jackets! (think josh and ronda if you need a visual) I knew that they weren't just in seattle but I wasn't aware of its existence until I got there, so if I ever saw the jackets before that in a different city I wouldn't have noticed.

That's all -- it just made me happy :)

  2. I love that you shared this moment John! City Year is everywhere; relatively speaking (in 18 cites + piloting in Milwaukee this year)! We idealists are impacting the lives of children one city at a time, isn't it wonderful?!
