As a mom and Service Learning Director, I constantly teach about service, becoming a leader, and changing the world, or at least a corner of it. I'm trying to do that myself by participating in the Global Community Leadership program with Youthlinc. We'll spend two weeks in Vietnam teaching storytelling conferences to teens and conducting home visits to help these amazing people share their stories about how they have a voice. We will also be studying narratives within global crises situations, and conduct projects to create our own narratives.
I'm excited to use this trip as a project for my own schooling and to get ideas to bring back to my students. Best of all, when I talk to my students about how to help others and become their own best self, I'll be a better example of that. I'm working hard to earn the extra money I need to meet my goal, but could use some help. Anything helps and is extremely appreciated. It's also tax deductible!
Thanks! -Melanie
