We have all seen the impact a small group can have when they truly believe in something and come together. Whether it is electing our first African American president or saving the small neighborhood theatre that can no longer hold up to this economy, we are familiar with the effects of hope, love, and passion. Over the past year, Groundwork Opportunities has had the privilege of truly feeling this impact first-hand. What started as a few like-minded people wanting to make a real change in the world, has turned into a successful 501(c)(3) organization that has been able to make lasting, positive changes all across the globe.

"Having traveled personally to many of our projects around the globe, I have seen first hand what real suffering looks like. There are certainly days when I think it is hard to get up and swim a few miles or bike for a few hours, but I am consistently reminded why I am doing this and any suffering I might have, doesn't even compare. I think it always takes a little bit of perspective to realize how lucky we are and to really get out there and make a difference. I am proud to start this racing team and promote involvement worldwide." -Jenny O'Connor, GO Development Director
