[Offer] "I'll go and do more" (Annie Dodge Wauneka) postcards [U.S. to U.S./WW very limited]
Author Summary
Post Body

I saw this beautiful portrait with the quote "I'll go and do more" on a postcard by TheAcademicAsdzaa: https://imgur.com/jlQ0sG8.

After surviving the Spanish flu, Annie Dodge Wauneka, who was born into the Diné (Navajo) tribe, became a public health advocate. She "created an English-Navajo medical dictionary to help doctors and patients communicate, educated people about tuberculosis, gave regular radio broadcasts in Navajo to share health and welfare information, served on advisory boards … , and improved housing and sanitation conditions in her community." She was the first American Indian to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest award that can be given to civilians in the U.S. Apparently, after receiving an award, she would end her acceptance speech with something along the lines of "I'll go and do more." (Sources: https://www.nps.gov/people/annie-dodge-wauneka.htm, https://www.womenofthehall.org/inductee/annie-dodge-wauneka/)

I aspire to live my life in the same spirit. To claim, please give your location (U.S./WW) and a short comment about who inspires you and why. I'll close the offer Wednesday morning and PM people for their address. Thank you!
