"BTC program ... It was a wonderful experience. I can tell you from the way it went that in my opinion each program will be different due to the fact that it is a living thing that Collin and Courtney bring their BTC program outline to. How the program evolves from the basic outline they have in place has to do with the members of the group and the outline itself which also is a changing thing based on experiences of the prior groups. No two groups will ever be the same because of the individuality of the participants and that is what makes them so special.

The bonds, friendships and experiences you have will be as lasting as you choose them to be as well as what you get out of the BTC experience. What you put into it is what you take away from it, with that being said just imagine coming together in one place for a moment in time with a group of people from different walks of life that all share a common vision. They all share their thoughts and experiences and try to turn that vision into a reality. Even if some of the members do not know what they can or want to do they all share the same common vision and the group along with the BTC program outline turns that vision into a goal with a workable plan of action.

Every member will leave with a different goal, plan and time frame. Every member will leave with a different experience however all will be connected in a way that only a group like this can bind them.

Do it, you will always cherish the memories, friendships and the way you will feel inside as a result and you might just turn that vision into a reality."

"This was the most amazing, life changing experience to date. I would suggest this program to anyone who wants to make a difference, but is unsure how."

The "Be The Change Breckenridge" program definitely exceeded my expectations in every way. Instead of just learning about the mechanics of NPO's, NGO's and social entrepreneurship, I also came out of the program more focused, driven and confident to implement my idea of developing a global awareness campaign around sex-trafficking. Probably the most memorable and impactful part of this amazing week was getting to know the people. Colin, Courtney and Nadine inspired and challenged us to live to our full potential, really encouraging us through exercises of self-discovery, and helping us to lay out our vision. They were generous, kind and supportive -- couldn't ask for better hosts and facilitators! I felt like all of the attendees and the GVN crew became a close family by the end. Since the people joining a BTC course are like-minded and passionate about social entrepreneurship, we bonded quickly, and I'm quite sure will remain in contact moving forward. There have been a number of pivotal moments in my life, and I would consider this one of them. I came out of the course with the confidence that I can achieve my dream of setting up a global awareness campaign around sex-trafficking. BTC Breckenridge has been the catalyst to initiate making my dream into a reality.
