Youth Can Move the World Symposium 2008

On February 23, 2008, ACCESS Charity will be one of the organizations represented at the Agency Fair at this year's Youth Can Move The World Symposium. "Inspiring Agents of Change" is the event's slogan.

Inspired by the United Nations declaration of the years 2005-2014 as the Decade of Education for Sustainable Development, Youth Can Move the World is a symposium where youth learn about programs and activities focused on creating a world that is socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable. It is also designed to encourage and enable youth to engage with community-based organizations to explore opportunities to transform their interests into action through local volunteerism.

School in Colombia Sends Thanks

In December 2007, a donation from ACCESS funded the purchase of whiteboards and classroom stationary for students in a small town in Colombia. The school created a plaque to recognize our contributions to their school community.

Right, the staff wrote a thank-you for ACCESS on one of their new boards. The white boards will replaces damaged chalk boards and cut down on the consumption of chalk, which produces dust leading to health problems.
