You Can Be the Change

About Me


Winter 2007 (December 16, 2007): Hello out there! Welcome to our website. We have recently met the members of the [Student] Peace Alliance (www.myspace.com/spaidaho) and are working towards becoming more active in the community. You Can Be The Change's purpose is to raise up the voices that are not heard. Your ideas are our actions. PLEASE feel free to talk to us - through here or via one of the official's websites (Managers Gus Voss, Kelsey Swope, and Kate Harrison; and Official Photographer Hailey Turner). We want to lift up the voices of the world and rescue our people from apathy... what a world we live in!
- Kate, Gus and Kelsey
Summer 2007: Hello! Fortunately we are active again. As of now we are researching and planning new events to be held here in Boise. We are looking forward to seeing all of you! Thanks again,
-Kate, Gus and Kelsey.
You Can Be The Change is an activist organization originating out of Boise Idaho. It was founded by Gus Voss, Andrew Priest, and Brian Miller. Gus Voss, Kelsey Swope, and Kate Harrison cooperatively manage and run the organization now. Contact any of them for information.
UPCOMING EVENTS!
Update 11/09/07: We need a fire under our butts to get moving. This is what happens when high school kids manage this kind of thing. Help us kindle it? Contact us via this site, or one of our personal ones.
