A round every corner there seems to be bad news --increase of gang violence, breakdown of family, and constant environmental degradation. It's easy to feel as if the world if falling apart and hard to hold onto hope for the future. Yet, I still believe there is a reason to keep hoking and part of that has to do with an organization I hear from but four times a year.

I hope by sharing with you information about them, I am not abusing my privileges as a writer for this website. I don't receive any compensation from this group and frankly, they probably won't even know about this endorsement. I just felt I had to let others know that there is a reason to keep believing..

The group is called Earth Angels and to me, they are living proof that we can change the course this planet is headed. Earth Angels is made up of four inner-city pre-teen environmental groups in St. Louis, Missouri. These "at-risk: children, who in their daily lives deal with all of the "bad news" above, have set the pond rippling and are touching the lives of many.
