older members of the community with volunteers who provide companionship, run errands, and generally embody the Buddhist principle after which the project is named. "Dana is about extending compassion and care, without any reward or recognition," says Nakamura. Today, the program serves more than 1,000 kupuna, or elders. Says Nakamura: "Caregiving is everybody's business."

Alma Powell - Children's Advocate

Children are Alma Powell's passion. Not just her own children and grandchildren, but all children, of all colors and faiths. At 71 -- the most fulfilling time of her life, she says -- Powell is chair of America's Promise Alliance (www.americaspromise.org), a children's-aid organization she founded in 1997 with her husband, General Colin Powell. Five promises anchor the Powell effort: to succeed in life, all young people need caring adults, safe places (homes or schools), a healthy start, effective education, and opportunities to help others. America's Promise helps fulfill these promises by providing expertise and financial support to children's organizations across the country. At stake, Powell believes, is nothing less than the nation's future. "UNICEF did a study last year of 21 developed nations and how well they take care of their children. We're number 20," says Powell. "What is our future if we don't turn that around?"
