Sometimes, all we need is a practical way to make a difference. Connected is the foundation for stepping up to being a good neighbor and recognizing that everyone, no matter their background, ethnicity, or economic level, is really part of this one world, one human family. This book is full of ideas that can unite people when we make the conscious choice to act in small simple ways.
Some ideas include: •Hosting a game night with your neighbors•Growing a community garden •Offering a ride to someone in need •Creating art in your community, and •Partying with a purpose
“What if we lived in a world where every single person mattered? What if we all knew and felt that we belong, that none of us are separate or disconnected? What if each person believed they had a meaningful place in our society and the world? What if?”- Andrea Costantine

About the Author

Andrea Costantine inspires others to make a difference in the world by getting involved and creating community through compassion, contribution and connection.
Andrea teaches that each thought, behavior and action creates a ripple effect. She believes that when we come together, change can be made. With a sense of community, separation dissipates, leading to happier, healthier, more compassionate human beings, who can then contribute back to others.

Andrea's adoration for the human spirit is expressed through her workshops, speeches and books where she teaches others how to lead with service and live with compassion and love.

Andrea Costantine witnessed her first example of compassionate service early in life, when at five years old she saw her father give a box of fried chicken to a homeless man digging in the dumpster behind their family restaurant. As a teen, the only thing that kept her out of trouble (and her grades decent), was being involved in student government, where she contributed to both her school and the local community. More recently, Andrea has volunteered for various non-profits, including the animal shelter where she adopted her two cats, literacy efforts, children's services and local events.

Professionally, Andrea has a Master's Degree in Human Services: Counseling Studies, is a certified coach, and is a creative visionary entrepreneur at heart.
