Dear AI Colleagues:
In the spirit of the New Year, I wanted to let you know about 29 very
special youth who are emerging globally to help bring peace to the world ... here
is their story...
In 2001, The We Are Family Foundation was born through the efforts of a
small group of people wanting to heal the negative impact of September 11th and
refocus the world on the positive things we can do together as a global
community.
I was one of the founding members… and we never anticipated we would be
doing such big projects in such a short amount of time – however we are finding
so many people want to be a part of something bigger than we can create alone.
Through our WAFF educational and peace initiatives, we are developing
opportunities for global citizens to work together to create peace and
understanding around the world.
2008: April of 2008, We Are Family Foundation will launch our first
Global Teen Initiative in NYC.
Working with 40 NGOs (Non-governmental Organizations) around the world, we
found 29 of the most incredible Global Teen Leaders (GTLs), between the ages
of 12-19, who are actively working on projects that promote a more peaceful
society.
They will come together at our 2008 Just Peace Summit to learn how to
effectively "tell their stories" in order to expand their leadership ability,
mobilize peers, and expand their work by engaging audiences around the work in
their projects.
