This isn't Parker speaking. It’s the i’m Initiative team.

As lots of you have pointed out, Parker's fictional. But in many ways, he's real for us. We took everyone we've met who's working to make the world a better place, rolled them into one, and added cooler hair: That's Parker. The Talkathon was inspired by this passion. Your passion.

So, thank you. Thank you for checking out the Talkathon. Thank you for following the story. Thank you for commenting. If you went so far as to sign up for the Initiative (so your e-mails and IMs can make a difference), thank you for that, too. And if you haven't yet—join now.
