More on the Optimist Difference

Yes!  Remembering the great tagline, "The Optimist difference...it's all in our name," allowed me to find others that are promoting that great message. 

One is the Optimist Club of Richardson, Texas.  The Richardson Optimist Club explains that the Optimist Club mission is threefold:

1. An Optimistic Attitude - Optimists believe that a positive approach can make all the difference in the world. Through hands-on community and youth programs, Optimists brighten spirits and create hope and confidence in the future. The Optimist Creed provides proof of the Optimists' philosophy.

2. Youth & Community Service - Along with the Optimists' motto, "Friend of Youth," comes the commitment to help, educate, inspire, and believe in tomorrow's future--our young people. Optimists believe that by investing in youth, we can ensure a better tomorrow.

3. Personal Development - Optimist Club members receive as much as they give. Optimists have endless opportunities to gain leadership experience and to grow personally and professionally. Optimists value the social and business relationships they develop with individuals from a cross section of their community.

Another is the Indiana South District of Optimist International.  In addition to learning that the positive attitude is what differentiates Optimist Clubs from all others, they also tell you that the Optimist Clubs of the Indiana South District have served 104,203 children from October 1, 2007 to Sept 7,2009 at 04:11 pm. Kind of a fun, interactive tool to encourage you to find out how.  When you click here you will not only learn how they do it, but how many children benefit from each activity.  What a great touch. 

Does your Optimist Club or District promote the Optimist Difference?  Be sure to let me know so we can tell others.  Thanks!
