I asked a couple of my younger colleagues who also do professional community work, asking them: "Why do you do this work?" Here are their responses which mirror the reasons why a Better for Us Community is important:
"Working to ensure that people are treated with fairness and compassion has always been at the core of my being. In addition, I have lived a fulfilling life full of opportunities, and I believe that everyone should be able to have that experience."--J.Y., Executive Director of a multi-state nonprofit organization.
"Tucson, just like any city, will grow and change. I work to make sure it grows and changes in a way that is constructive and improves as many citizens' lives as possible. I want Tucson's growth to be managed by those who have an interested in equality, culture, and sustainability."--C.F., Community Outreach Coordinator for a collaborative nonprofit organization.
