I just finished writing our first big grant and got asked by the grantor to define what makes us unreasonable at #OneSharedRoot
based on the quote below:
"The reasonable person adapts themselves to the world; the
unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to themselves. Therefore
all progress depends on the unreasonable person." -George Bernard Shaw
Here was my answer:
One Shared Root is unreasonable because we look past what others
consider reality and design our world with unlimited potential. This community
venture began with our son, who in spite of a life limiting disorder,
approaches each day as if his spirit will live forever. He continues to inspire
us all to challenge limitations and bravely pursue liberation.
Lastly, our dear
friend Melissa Pullon introduced us to this amazing gal who works with another Non
Profit named FT4C, Fruit Trees for Community. It’s a program to strengthen the local
community with the benefits of a bulk-order wholesale discount on a great
assortment of berry, grape, and fruit trees that were hand-picked to do well in
our climate. With every order over
3 trees, they will donate 1 fruit tree and every order over 12, they will
donate 5 fruit trees in your name to any of the local participating
organization you choose (#OneSharedRoot)! Check out their website: https://ft4c.org
The root just keeps growing….
