I know that we have been talking about telling
Oprah what we do for a while...so I was checking
out her website and saw that she is doing a show on
chains of kindness in your community...I emailed
the following to her....lets keep our fingers
crossed.
`Create A Chain Of Kindness In Your Community
And Tell Us About It!
We have done better! We are going beyond the
borders your town, city and province, to create a
country that shares.
I work for a national youth organization that
empowers youth called The Students Commission. We
have dedicated three years to begin to deal with
child poverty. The project is called Sharing
Resources 2000.
Our goal is by the year 2000 to have 2000 youth
involved in 2000 community projects which will be
.007% of the Canadian population. We are achieving
this by running a series of national workshops and
then creating a national network where we support
each other. Youth have created awareness, started
breakfast clubs, after school groups, homework
clubs.....the list goes on. We are the youth of
this country, our time to take over is not
tomorrow...it is TODAY!
We all have resources to share.
Take care of you
Krista
