Meet Dafna Michaelson, a Denver mom who just kicked off an ambitious journey across the country. This go-getter will be going to 50 states in 52 weeks and meeting people who are making an impact in their community. She's looking for problem-solvers, idea-generators and people who are making America a better place.
Although Michaelson officially started the journey on Jan. 7 in Delaware, she still needs your help.
If you know ordinary people doing extraordinary things, you can nominate them, then vote for the top 10 in your state. As Michaelson makes her way to your hometown, you can even plan to rally where you live.
Feel free to send ideas on how to solve problems in your community or, well, JOIN the JOURNEY team!
This local lady will be keeping us updated on her journeys with her blog - which is already in full force. What a great way to kick off 2009, right? It's time we get some heavy doses of good news in this country.
Michaelson won't be making her way to Colorado until Dec. 23, but until then, follow her blog and start nominating those you think are impacting Colorado.

Awesome! I'll have to follow her blog. I've traveled all but one of the states myself into small airports, and seeing the country and people via the roads less traveled (or our in our case without the major airports) is a great experience. Can't wait to hear about the people she meets. I hope she goes to a lot of small cities.
