Good luck on your project, said a woman after we took a photo together in the airport. I had pointed to IamSilent.com written on my t-shirt in sharpee after she tried asking a few different times about where and when our next show was. ...

Roza Markham

Roza Markham please please! in your prayers, when your walking down the street quietly talking to God , remember the children of the world who cannot speak for their plight whatever it may be. My son says at the end of his track "The children, the children". No they may not have earthly parents to fight their battles but Our heave...nly father has a special place for them and will raise them up.
LOve and GOds blessings everyone

Mick Kastner I really think you guys should get more involved in the US. I went 18 years of my life without hearing about Free the Children or Me to We. Then Marc came to my college and now I just want to get involved!

Sarah Dalrymple For those of us with kids, this is a great cause to get involved in as a family. Even if you don't have kids it's wonderful, but for parents what a great way to help our children help others.

What The Daily Show with Jon Stewart is to evening news, The Colbert Report is to personality-driven pundit shows.

I also just learned of the organization because of the Colbert report. He is serious when he needs to be and was serious enough during this segment to get Marc's point across. At least serious enough for me to check it out further.

Seems like Marc and co. are doing some great work. Steven does give good publicity and some of us Colbert Report viewers also care about stuff like this ;o)

If we’re going to change the world, we’ve got to start here in Canada. Changing attitudes. Changing priorities. Changing the way we think about the world. Through Free The Children we will work with youth across the country to collectively give 1 million hours to local volunteerism. ...
