Blink Now

“Blink Now came from the idea that we can all change the world, anything can change in the blink of an eye. What I would say to someone looking to make a difference is to just start now. You’re not too young, you’re not too old. You don’t need to wait until you have enough money or the right degree or for everything to fall into place perfectly. Start somewhere. It’s really the only way to make the world better.”

“Namasta didi” a little girl said to a traveler. The little girl, Nema, touched the heart of a 19-year old traveler. Through the love of that heart, Blink Now was born. That 19-year old traveler was Maggie Doyne. She asked her parents for the $5000 she had saved from babysitting and began helping. The rest is history.

Blink now has given birth to an orphanage, a school, a women’s center, and surely more is to come. Maggie’s impact has touched countless lives and her efforts to help continue steadfast through earthquakes and pandemics.

This organization gets my highest recommendation. I encourage everyone to watch the video below and support this group.

Maggie, if you ever read this, know you’ve been an inspiration to me. Thank you for all you do.
