Amanda's the name. =]

yeah. i know you already know it, but i love interact. no lie, this is something that i never get sick of working on. i do get tired, don't get me wrong, but i don't mind. it's hard to explain myself without getting all cliche, but interact is ALL about doing good and feeling good. right now many of you might be doing this for college credits or whatever, but i hope that after an awesome year in interact, you'll learn the true meaning and concept of community service. i don't know about you, but i don't measure my life in hours, minutes, and exact seconds. i measure my life in moments, memories, laughs, and feelings. hours are cool but interact is also hella fun. so join us in serving the community locally and fun-raising for our international project HydrAID.

HydrAID is our water sanitation project for underdeveloped countries. every year countless people die of water-contracted diseases. it's truly sad that in this day and age people still die from lack of clean water. our technological and scientific advancement is way beyond water filtration and sanitation for everyday uses like cooking, drinking, and bathing; yet people around the world are dying. for $32 a filter, we can save thousands of families in countries like the Dominican Republic. our project goal for the entire district is $50,000. i've set our goal as Oak Grove Interact to be $500. what do you say?
...i'll tell you what to say. you say, "let's do this! i'm so down, amanda. area 8, we domineight."
