1>0 Girls Attend First Annual Tween Summit In Washington DC and Sponsor Their First RAM Expedition!
On October 10th, we all drove down to Washington DC to attend the AllyKatzz Tween Summit! Hundreds of tween girls from across the United States attended this amazing weekend event. The girls were lucky enough to hear many inspiring women speak.
Jess Weiner, an awesome writer for Seventeen Magazine, was the moderator at the summit. Among the speakers was Brandi Chastain, an Olympic Gold Medalist. She, along with the other incredible women spoke to these tweens about working hard, living their lives to their fullest and never giving up on their dreams. Hundreds of girls were there to realize that they can make a difference in the world! Even we were inspired! The event showed girls that even though they're not adults, they do have a say in this world!
We were even able to show our 1>0 video and sell our bracelets, necklaces and t-shirts at the event. In addition to raising a lot of money for our causes, we also raised social awareness! 1>0 also met and spoke to Brooke White, Jacob Latimore, and Debby Ryan! We gave them our jewlery and told them about our organization. They were all so supportive and Debby Ryan even twittered about us! It was a wonderful weekend!!!!
1>0 also sponsored our first RAM medical expedition on October 3rd and 4th in Grundy, Virginia. We are so thrilled to have been a part of such a successful weekend. There were 747 volunteers who provided $777,196 worth of medical care to over 1,000 patients. YES… 1,000 patients were given free medical services that weekend because of your support of ONE IS GREATER THAN NONE! We are looking forward to sponsoring more medical expeditions and supporting RAM in their mission to provide free medical care to Americans in need.
