“There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world: Those who are afraid to try themselves, and those who are afraid that you will succeed.” - Ray Goforth



"I think the holiday visit to Crozer Hospital was my favorite experience. Also, I really enjoyed attending Colin Powell's speech. He spoke well, kept my attention, and entertained and informed me."
