Posted by: Rose Bugusu, Tumaini Miles of Smiles Centre, Administrator

This is a wonderful program for the kids in orpanages. It means alot to them when they receive letters from others in other countries, they feel so special and loved which motivates them ver much. I am involved with children in an orphanage and I have seen this boosting the self esteem of children in a very special way. Keep it up and expand to reach more.

delivery of letters
This comment is about: "Write-Share-Learn-Care"

Posted by: Terryl Holzinger

Hello! What an excellent idea you've come up with. I'm curious though,what are the parameters (or challenges?) in getting the letters to the children. Do you deliver them or does each person mail theirs. And do they make it to the orphanage successfully?

Thanks!

Youth Together

To Staples and Youth Venture!

Thank you so much for empowering the youth of today by providing the Changemakers “That Was Easy” contest. So often youth are stereotyped as bad and it is due to you, that we can work together to change that stereotype one step at a time. In the end, it is the generation before that youth looks up to and it is you that have been the change makers for a new generation. Because you have taken steps to motivate the youth of today to believe in themselves, you have provided an opportunity for more youth to become involved in changing their lives as well as sharing that feeling with others. I am sure that all the teams want to share their thanks for the opportunities that you have provided us through this program. Thanks to Staples and Youth Venture!!

What a great way to engage youth - practical, easy to implement, with REAL benefits. It also seems to leverage youth culture in a way that makes total sense. BRAVO YTA!!!
