Storytelling to Transform, Inspire and Educate

I love to create and co-create, connect and synergize people, projects and organizations, and inspire others to help make a positive impact in the world with passion and a sense of adventure. I am president and co-founder of Shaking the Tree Foundation (www.shakingthetree.org). In short, we utilize storytelling (mostly theater) to inspire people to think about how they might utilize their resources in the service of others. Not only do we tackle issues around philanthropy, but also address issues of wealth and money.

great to find others engaged and active like this. I have been pursuing this path since childhood and now my life and work are in a period of deep transformation...looking for new ways and contexts, as well as people and organizations, to share my skills and passions with to make beautiful and meaningful things happen.

hopefully here I can also come in contact and interact

trusting,

Hi M,

I tried to acces your site but it didn't work. Are u making changes? The activity you promote around story telling seems very interesting.

Best regards,

I'm intrigued with the idea of storytelling as a means of solving our problems. In fact, it may be the essentially human means to communicate vision and intention. I am volunteering for a nonprofit whose aim is to find, translate and broadcast documentary films made around the world so that everyone can better experience what life is like for our brothers and sisters all over. Hopefully, they will more deeply learn how similar we all are!

The organization is Living Earth Television and the website is www.letv.org. The founder is Martha Foster.

Peace, Earon Davis earondavis@aol.com
