Based on several requests from many IAMV members, IAMV started a youth group to provide our kids a chance to develop community spirit and leadership abilities; complete volunteer work for their college application; and have fun. This youth group has been a great success last year.
Youth group has an elected executive team consisting of President, Vice President, Treasurer, General Secretary and Public Relations Lead. This helps introduce our kids to various challenging roles and develop leadership skills.
There are several activities planned for the youth group, such as:
- Volunteer work, e.g. group is scheduled to do a 2-hour volunteer work at Sutton Hill Center every month.
- A program to celebrate a day with special significance to Indian community, e.g. Independence Day, Republic Day or Gandhi Jayanti.
-
Entertainment: for example, a day at amusement park, movie or a get together at IAMV member’s house.
Based on above
plan, youth
group will be
required to meet
10-14 times a
year assuming at
least one
meeting prior to
an event and the
event itself.
Primary goals
for the youth
group:
- Develop
community
spirit; give
them a venue
and
opportunity
to bond with
each other.
- Develop
leadership
abilities.
This would
be useful
for their
college
application
as well as
any
community
activities.
E.g. IAMV.
-
Integration
of Indian
community
with the
local
community,
e.g. town or
local event
planners.
We cannot do any of above without interest and involvement from each one of you. Parents of eligible youth, age 13-18. Please contact Shoba Donti at shobagd@comcast.net
or Deeta Shah at deetashah@verizon.net. |
