Vision
I can be the change in the world, by listening to my heart!
Our  vision   is   for   children   to   experience,  feel   and   believe   in   their   innate   ability   to   transform   themselves   and   their   community,   for   the   be<er.   Children   being   empowered  to   BE  and  lead   the  change  in  designing  solu=ons  for   the  global  issues   we   are   faced   with,   transforms   our   world   by   reminding   adults   of   their   inherent   beauty  and  the  power  of  BEING  child-­‐like!
Mission
We   share  seven   inner   steps   for  outer  change,  empowering  children,  teachers   and   parents  to  take  ac=on  on  issues  in  their  communi=es  that  bother  them  by  enabling   child-­‐driven  change.
Through   the   seven   steps   for   change:   Feel,   Imagine,   Do,   Share,   Reflect,   Enjoy,
Sustain ,  children   are  given  tools   to  dream   up   and   lead  community  service  projects   that  improve  the  quality  of  their  lives.
