Many Americans want to make a difference in their communities. The challenge is not always willingness—it is finding an opportunity that fits their lives.
@ArmyNormalFolks, the movement led by @IamCoachBill, is redefining service with a six pilot programs across the U.S. At the heart of each club is a core premise: service can strengthen a community—and help people find connection within it.
"You just join us when you can," says co-founder Alex Cortes.

A “leprechaun” played happy birthday to me on the harmonica lol

It’s hard to believe that we stepped foot on 12 Acres at 1245 North 7th Street 25 years ago today.
That 12 acres and 110 year old wooden building is now 48 acres and will produce 25,000,000 bf of lumber this year. I’m so humbled by our amazing employees, partners, and customers
Could not be more proud to be coaching at the best kept secret in Memphis - but now, the secret is out!

Every strong child is proof that someone showed up.
You don’t have to change the world. Just start by changing the trajectory of one kid
Frederick Douglass called it. Show up for the kid in front of you. That’s what An Army of Normal Folks do

Normal Folks Wisdom w/Bo Ghirardelli
Experts aren’t the only ones with wisdom. Normal Folks got it too.
Bo is the co-founder of Sky’s The Limit, the leading digital platform for connecting underrepresented entrepreneurs with “The Holy Trinity” of education, mentors, capital
It was an honor to meet a real life leprechaun today
Madison, WI's most notable leprechaun, Joe Herr, was with us for the pod
But not because he's a seasonal leprechaun, but because his nonprofit Logan's Heart and Smiles has helped over 450 children with disabilities
