Educational presentations provide knowledge and inspiration for youth

ACCESS offers presentations that educate and inspire youth to make a difference!

In today's complex society, global issues are becoming more of a focus. With growing economic disparity, issues such as poverty, education and sustainability are increasingly important.

ACCESS continues to offer inspiring presentations to schools, organizations and conferences. ACCESS Educational Presentations cover a variety of topics related to social action, and feature first-hand experience of the Dominican Republic Exposure Experience.

“You have inspired me and the students I teach to think and act beyond the borders of our own comfort zones. I thank you for awakening in us ears, hearts and hands willing to listen, feel and work towards a more just distribution of education opportunities for all.” - Dale Cimolai, Teacher

Presentations are customizable to meet specific educational requirements, event themes, or school campaigns. Topics include; Social Justice, Youth Activism, Making a Difference, Life in the Developing World, Dominican Republic Exposure Experience, and ACCESS: Allowing Children a Chance at Education.

“Your presentation allowed students to understand how fortunate they are to have what they have and how important it is to be aware of how little others have and why we are duty-bound to give to those in need.” - Sonia Rotino, Principal

As a youth-run organization, ACCESS promotes youth's power to make a difference. Once inspired, students and groups can take action! Fundraising campaigns are available.

Three years ago today, a dream was born

The unsuspecting weekend of March 4, 2006 held the conception of the non-profit organization ACCESS Charity, three eventful years ago.

Since the initial presentation about the Dominican Republic Exposure Trip at a Brampton church was followed by a collection of over $8,000 three years ago, ACCESS has developed into an active youth-run organization. (Full text from the initial presentation can be read online here.)

In light of their unofficial third anniversary, ACCESS is releasing a 2-minute promotional video.

The video, embedded below, was created by Heads or Tails and tells a brief story about the organization and its roots.

ACCESS: Allowing Children a Chance at Education, Inc. was officially incorporated in the province of Ontario on May 28, 2008. For details on this non-profit status, click here.

ACCESS strives to provide children in the developing world with school uniforms and supplies, giving them the opportunity to obtain an education and successful future.
