My Current Ability To Contribute To The Community: It Just Requires You!

Prison is a womb or a tomb. I can lay here and learn to die or I can learn to live. Since I've tried the whole death thing, I'd rather learn to live. I came to this conclusion years ago and I have grown so much as a result.

Besides the fact that I love people, a result of the womb, I don't believe I can love without action or at least attempted action. This is that attempt again or rather, still.

I am rather passionate about ending violence in our communities. Not just LGBT communities, all communities. I aim to bolster the effectiveness of community organizations already in place. But my ability goes deeper than that. Helping an organization is already a structured element. You could, for instance:
1. Volunteer skills (like fundraising, accounting, organizing)
2. Donate funds or materials or other assets 
3. Get them media attention (perhaps the most valuable donation to an organization is publicity)

This is by no means an exhaustive list, its just a quick and short example. I can help organizations develop strategy to get these things, and at no cost to them. If you want to hear me out, feel free to contact.

My ability goes deeper though. Not only can I help organizations be more effective, I can help the populace (you) be more engaged in movements you might not know how you fit into. Here's a few examples:

1. Prison reform
2. Immigration reform
3. Racial injustice
4. Police brutality

Just to name a minuscule amount. I can help you find ways to engage and support these movements in real tangible ways that are meaningful.

Most people want to help but don't know how. I can help in that regard. 

Its a small way in which I can give back to the community until I release. Hit me up.

With Love
Jeff
