Hello Everyone my name is Curtis Albers (GT Trent Nemesis) and I am a abused foster child survivor. The reason I bring this too your attention is very simple, I need your help in bringing awareness to this cause. My cause is entitled the Change the World campaign and it was inspired by a very close friend of mine America´s next top model and actress Raina Hein. People from all over the world have been submitting photos and images to my facebook and email, and basically they have created amazing images that say: Change the world curtis albers in their language!! I would love if XGC supported me on this endeavor, please send me a message or tag me in Halo 4 if your on and lets chat!!! Remember never settle for mediocrity and always challenge yourself to do more!!
FOSTER CARE ABUSE?
- Thread starter Trent Nemesis
- Start date
If we did this I have a great idea of somthing we could do. Get as many people in the clan (possibly the leaders if they want to be apart of it) in a party chat (at separate times of course) and capture card individually saying, "My name is [Insert name] My Gamertag is [Insert Gamertag] and I am against fostercare abuse". A video with all the voices of XG would be a great motive.
sadly i don't have halo 4, but i would love to help you spread the word!
an organization i plan on joining in the near future is B.A.C.A. (bikers against child abuse). i believe the website is bacausa.com
the organization is actually really really awesome. basically it's a bunch of bikers trying to give abused children their sense of pride and confidence back.each kid is assigned a biker to protect them. say an abused child has nightmares about what has happened to them. all they have to do is call their biker and they will come out and park outside your house and let the engine roll for a while so they know someone is watching over them. or say they have an abusive parent that comes around every once in a while. their biker will go and let the kid they are watching over them, then they go to all the neighbors houses and let them know that someone is watching out for that kid. in some cases, they will even get a huge group together to circle the neighborhood.
they work for kids that get bullied as well. whether they get a ride from the school bus, or a ride from their parent, they will escort the kid to school and walk them in as far as they can. can you imagine the presence that kid now has? they will even confront the bullies in some intense cases.
it's not an organization about beating people up or stalking, just giving abused kids their confidence back.
i bet if you contacted them, you could get their support as well!!!

i love those ideas woooow, thank you two so much. Im super excited about my awareness campaign and i will definitely reach out to other groups. it would be great of the xgc leadership to do something like that but i think they are super busy hmmmm.
and i am definitely willing to throw a shout out to xgc on my website www.curtisalbers.org for their support and i can ask raina to do the same perhaps.
