Be a Changemaker: How to Start Something That Matters<\/a>
\nby Laurie Ann Thompson (Author)<\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> Do you wish you could make a difference in your community or even the world? Are you one of the millions of high school teens with a service-learning requirement? Empower yourself in today\u2019s highly connected, socially conscious world as you learn how to wield your passions, digital tools, and the principles of social entrepreneurship to affect real change in your schools, communities, and beyond.<\/p>\n

Snippet:<\/strong> Want something to show the college admission officers–not to mention scholarship selection committees–that you stand out from the other applicants? Changemaking shows off your real-world leadership skills and demonstrates a commitment to community service in a way that short-term volunteer positions don’t.<\/p>\n
