The 'Take down the walls and build the bridges again' edition of the newsletter...
I got to spend a good part of Monday at the United Nations listening to a lot of smart people talk about food, hunger and making kids think about nutrition as it ties to sport. We also had the opportunity to look around outside the General Assembly building, and came across a piece of the Berlin Wall. Hence the image and the thought. Use sport to build relationships not assemble issues. Keep the content coming...this is your newsletter!!!

Sports Cause of the Week – by @sportsandchange
The Pittsburgh Steelers Vebt Relief program recognizes veterans in the community for their service and sacrifices while also helping to alleviate debt. Partnering with ForgiveCo, the Steelers and Verizon will forgive $100,000 worth of debt every time the Steelers win this regular and postseason, providing a financial boost to those who have served.
