Our organization was founded in 2005 under the name ME³ (motivate, educate, empower, and engage). ME³ was launched following a two and a half month cross-country road trip during which co-founders Amber Smith and Heather Leah conducted random acts of kindness and volunteered with a variety of causes in over 20 states. Along the journey, they discovered that many they met were very interested in volunteering, but didn’t know how to get started. At the same time, nonprofits had a great and consistent need for more volunteers to help them serve and improve the communities they worked in. This experience inspired the friends to found ME³ to close the gap between those who wanted to help out but didn’t know how, and those causes that needed volunteer help from more people in the community.
