We're making soup!

There is an old legend from Europe, which tells of how the intention of one man, an outsider, engaged the passion of a starving village and united them in a magical feast, created from apparently nothing, just a pebble.

Today the lessons of that story are being applied towards providing opportunities for leaders from marginalised and from "mainstream" populations and for communities seeking betterment. The World will learn from this that when we choose to see greatness and beauty, we will be rewarded with greatness and beauty.

Every week, more volunteers are contributing delicious ingredients to the STONE SOUP that is cooking in Calgary, Alberta. A movement is starting to happen, volunteer driven, socially entrepreneurial, community centric, leadership focused and social-networking-dependent. The name of the movement is STONE SOUP....
