Letter to Parents

"There is a new generation of young people who believe in the power of connecting to other kids they have never actually seen before."   ~ Gina Otto

Technology is.

Period.

It is not going anywhere. ..and it is growing at an exponential rate so fast that we couldn’t even keep up with it if we wanted to.  Our children are growing right along with it and most often times they know more about it than we do. This can cause great stress and unease for parents and caregivers.

At Change My World Now we are creating a safe, socially-conscious, values-aligned community where kids gather to discover more about the world, connect with others and learn how to make a difference - creating social-journalists, social-entrepreneurs, social-advocates, social-artists and social activists. Our aim is to help our youth find their passion, own their voice and become more empowered, active, caring individuals.

We have been working with families and children all over the country and the world for more than a decade. We have shared your lives and heard your stories. We have listened closely and learned a lot about what it is that you want. For who amongst us does not want to raise healthy, conscious children in a safe, supportive environment, providing them with all of the support they need and the space to grow into confident, happy adults who care about their lives, their families, their  communities and their world?

But with schedules, car-pools, sports and activities – alongside politics, economic challenges and war, we know that it is difficult to spend the time needed to find the best and most beneficial activities for our children. We know you can’t stretch your time, energy, dollars, or attention in too many directions, and that’s why we are compiling the best resources, studies, connections, and activities for you and your family. Our goal is to give you quick, simple steps to strengthen your bond with your kids, and during those times that you get too busy, we want you to rest assured that their time on-line with us is a safe, valuable experience.

We have also created a place just for parents, to share, learn, connect and help us all better understand what it is you want for your kids.

In the end, we know that our site cannot take the place of YOU, but we know that together we can engage our children in changing the world for the better.  Empowering this NOW generation to find their voices and take action in the world is perhaps one of the most important steps we will ever take…and we are here for you to lend our support, our care and our community so that we can all take that step together.
