Wonderful thing you did. Great job! I'm a college freshman and an online activist for Oxfam (and several other causes). I would love to do what you did. How can I become a Youth Ambassador?

I'm glad he skipped football practice to see whats really happening in the world. The video fell short in a lot of ways. It seemed watered down compared to the horrors these people have endured
