Why You Need To Like 'I INSPIRE'
I INSPIRE inc., New York's community organisation,
inspiring social change through art activism.
As-salam`alaykum people.
Here is a project to get seriously excited about. I INSPIRE Inc., lead by Poet Dasham Brookins, is a community organisation that's run on the sheer creativity of volunteers and a passionate need to improve our cultural understanding through action. I like it. I think you will too.
What is I INSPIRE?
I Inspire is "Art Activism". We read bedtime stories to sick children. We hold art workshops for community harmony. We support artistic Muslims. We build interfaith bridges. We inspire creative Muslim women. And we motivate individuals to excel in whatever talent they have to inspire their community. It's an immense circle of hope and change.

"We Read Bedtime Stories to Sick Kids"
I Inspire, inc. is a U.S. based nonprofit that uses the arts to soothe hearts and motivate minds. Our signature program is "I Inspire Hearts™" where community volunteers read stories to children in hospitals using iPads. This aids in the mental and emotional health of children helping to make a rather antiseptic environment more warm and comforting to them.
Other programs will be launched in late 2011/early 2012 including "I Inspire Esteem™" for young girls and "I Inspire Bridges™" for interfaith and cultural understanding and collaborative change. Please click "LIKE" and help us help them."
I INSPIRE will be officially launched this June 2011. I would really appreciate your input and "LIKE" towards this project. {www.facebook.com/iinspireinc}
