Today marks the official launch of the “If We Ran It 5K Initiative.” Our goal is to garner 5,000 of the most candid, inspirational and vibrant answers to the very open, very weighted question: What would the world be like if WE ran it?

So we’re calling on all you young stunners and idealists to share your vision with us and the IWRI community. Simply navigate to www.ifweranit.com to participate.

IWRI is a for-the-kids, by-the-kids enterprise meant to showcase and promote the ideas of young people. We weren’t started by a mega brand nor do we believe the discussion documented on this site should be led by anybody other than YOU.

IWRI was started to showcase and help new ideas and fresh approaches to change — because the communities, organizations and institutions we work in DESPERATELY need our help – they need suggestions, ideas, honest feedback and commitment to participation. There’s great strength in numbers, and it’s time to get this movement underway.

All submissions will be displayed on our homepage, and you may just get a note from us in the near future asking how we can help make your vision a reality.

Kisses,

The If We Ran It Squad
