Learning to Give
Learning to Give
We envision all youth knowledgeable and equipped for lifelong engagement as givers of time, talent, or treasure for the common good.
Developing Community
We have tools and some impact on our own lives
“Blue Sky” group envisioning activity helps us identify what we care about … and helps us figure out our first steps toward action.
Identifying and Addressing Needs
“What project can we do next?”
Third-graders conducted research, then made stress balls and taught other classes to manage test anxiety.
Unexpected Benefits
“Immigrant families with language barriers love volunteering in the school garden.”
