A Message from HeathCliff Rothman, founder of What's Your Issue–Film Your Issue

What do you care about? What concerns you? What worries you? Blog about an issue or issues on your mind. Pontificate on a problem. Or vent. If you have an idea, offer a solution.

But Inspire — by taking action and speaking up! Share your heart and mind, your thoughts and ideas.

Issues can be personal, local, regional, national, or global — or you can talk about a program or organization that you want to flag to others.

You can make it short. A few lines. You can make it long, a few paragraphs.

Here is one of the first posts, by Tim Leaton, who describes how FYI impacted his life. He made a film about African orphans, which won our Film Your Issue competition in 2006. It's a call to action for others to participate.

If you're a past WYI/FYI participant — or winner — we'd love it if you would post about what WYI/FYI has meant to you, what you've been doing since you last participated in a WYI/FYI competition, and any changes you've seen in the landscape of your issue(s) since you created your previous WYI/FYI entry.
