My Project

We are excited about a special project for our middle school class that aims to inspire and educate our students about the power of youth activism.

We believe that learning about young individuals who are making a positive impact in the world can ignite a passion for change within our students, empowering them to become future leaders themselves.

Through this project, our students will engage in brainstorming sessions to explore various youth activists who are creating waves of change in different parts of the world. By studying their stories, our students will gain valuable insights into the importance of social justice, environmental conservation, human rights, and more.

This hands-on learning experience will not only broaden their perspectives but also nurture their empathy, critical thinking skills, and desire to contribute positively to society. To make this project a reality, we are kindly requesting donations to support the resources needed for brainstorming. We want each group to have markers, paper, and organization tubs.

Once our students have identified areas of community concern, they will develop ways to foster change. They will do this by providing community service to better the lives of others based on the topics of their choice. We are trying to encourage student to put their ideas into action. Students will then take this project to the next level. Some will develop service projects that will support their activism.

Your contribution, no matter the size, will play a vital role in shaping the minds of our future change-makers. Together, we can inspire a new generation of youth activists who will strive to make the world a better place for all.

Thank you for considering supporting our cause and helping us empower our students to dream big and create positive change!
