Bring The Betterment

Whitworth students making a difference

Spokane, Wash., Nov. 13, 2008 – The Betterment Project, a social movement rooted in positivity and activism, is officially being launched by Whitworth students Tyler Jones and Mike Ferrario.

As the depressing winter months begin to embark upon us, one organization stands against the foreboding despondency. Their mission is to actively conquer apathetic behaviors that lead to hopelessness. By rejecting laziness and other self -diminishing practices, they strive to create a positive environment for all who commence upon this uplifting lifestyle.

The key to this captivating crusade is simple yet brilliant: create a goal and stick to it. With family-like support from other members, the ever-expanding project has witnessed triumphant results in over 30 Whitworth students.

“As I was talking to Dillon (Fabie) the other day, he mentioned how his goal (talking to a member of his family a few times a week) brought him closer to them.” Said Ferrario, co-founder of The Betterment Project. “That is exactly what we hope for, people doing small things that are uplifting and positive. We want to face lethargic and morose spirits with dynamic and enthusiastic ones.”

The effort to lobby against apathy and ebbing practices is being squabbled by The Betterment Project right here on the campus of Whitworth University. In the midst of these gloomy months, there is hope for humanity, hope that is found within the embrace of an undertaking focused on the betterment of the human race.
