In this activity by Joyce Matthews, youth explore what makes up an identity, then build a deeper understanding of how their identity impacts the community. With this Read, Research, Reflect, and Reach Out model, youth travel a journey of self-discovery that leads to service. This discovery-to-action model can be used in other contexts.
Young people can be civic actors, philanthropists, and community builders...but only if we get out of their way! If we give youth the tools, permission, and support, they will make a positive impact on our families, schools, and communities, now and throughout their lives. This "Kids are Philanthropists, Too!" podcast and discussion guide is for people of all ages to explore important social challenges with kids as your guides.
