Strong and kind are two words you don’t see together everyday. We’ve teamed up with NBA All-Star Kevin Durant to prove the best way to show strength is to choose kindness. And to play it forward even more, KIND is donating $1 million to the Kevin Durant Charity Foundation to create specialized education and after-school programming for at-risk youth to teach them how to be STRONG & KIND.

Join us in reaching 1 million STRONG & KIND pledges to support our $1 million donation to Kevin Durant’s foundation. Take the pledge at StrongandKind.com

On Sunday, the Knesset Caucus for Ending the Israeli-Arab conflict, which OneVoice Israel was instrumental in establishing, brought over 300 Israeli students to Ramallah  for a personal and candid meeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. The landmark discussion underscored that the centrist majority of Israelis and Palestinian supports an agreement on the core issues that is in the mutual interests of both sides. I’m so proud of the OVI team’s efforts. Read the New York Times coverage of the event after the jump.

This was one of my favorite ads from the Super Bowl. It’s not just funny. Radio Shack effectively uses the spot to acknowledge that it has a tired brand and creatively invites viewers to revisit their assumptions and give them a chance as a modernized brand. If their stores live up to that new brand promise, they may well have a great future.

For MLK Day, the amazing teachers in my 5 year old son’s classroom asked the kids to share their dreams last week and made a book with all their drawings and wishes for a better world.  One dreamt that everyone will be nice to animals, another that everyone will have food, or that every child will have a place to go to school. Romy’s dream is below! :)
