Meet "Change Linked"

We're "Change Linked", one of 15 volunteer teams contributing to Project Change- Kansas City, a non-profit that brings professionals from the design and architectural fields together to create community service projects to meet local needs.

We have 4 Challenges that our team must creatively address:


Challenge One - February 2009
Warm the Homeless

Challenge Two - March 2009
Feed the Hungry

Challenge Three - April 2009
Save the Planet

Challenge Four - May 2009
Nurture the Children



Project Change provides a platform to "connect people, share our knowledge, use our talents to fuel our passions, and simplify the act of giving" in order to raise awareness in our communities for those in need.


Our team chose the name "Change Linked" to symbolize one of our self-sustaining volunteer projects which begins with one volunteer contributing their time to a child, who then chooses another volunteer to donate their time, who then chooses the next volunteer to spend time with a child, and so on..... Once the chain begins, it links to another person, then another and will continue indefinitely.

We chose Operation Breakthrough and Catherine's Place as the recipients of our four challenge projects. We'll document our experiences on this blog so visit our site often for current updates!
