ARD Accomplishments 2004

ARD World Wide Awareness

It takes one person to start a war, takes one to end it. It takes one person to say "I care", 
and takes one not to. It takes one person to understand, it takes one to be unkind. 
It takes one to motivate a change, takes one to be negative. 

     It takes one person to make or break something, courage and bravery lies in someone to start a change in the world. 
Do you have what it takes? 
That one person could be you and you can bring a change to this world with peace. 
Think about it. 
by Kenneth Walterhouse
