WHAT IS MINI WE DAY REGINA
PUBLIC?
Mini We Day Regina Public will
introduce your grade 7/8 to the Me To We Philosophy inspired by Free the Children, an international
organization founded by Canadian Craig Kielburger when he was 12 years old!
Free the Children aims to empower youth around the world to achieve their
fullest potential as agents of change. At Mini We Day Regina, we hope to
inspire the next generation of world-changers to realize the potential we each
have, through our actions and decisions, to make our school, local and global
communities a better place, not only for ourselves, but for the seven billion
other humans that we share our planet with.
Our
Mini We Day Regina will provide more information on Free the Children and Me to
We in a fun, interactive setting, and will also feature musical guests, and
inspirational videos.
WHO IS THE CAMPBELL ME TO
WE TEAM?
The Campbell Collegiate Me to We
Team is a group of over
one hundred students that are passionate about changing the world. The team
works in conjunction with Free the Children, an international charity that aims
to empower youth around the world to achieve their fullest potentials as agents
of change. Through the We Act program, the Campbell Me to We Team chooses at
least one global initiative and one local initiative each school year to work
towards.
As
a local initiative last year, we supported Campbell’s annual Adopt-a-Family
fundraiser, supporting over three hundred deserving families with Christmas
gifts and Christmas dinners to brighten their holiday seasons. In March, we
kicked off our second global initiative, in support of Free the Children’s Clean
Water and Sanitation Pillar in Rural China. The campaign was incredibly successful,
and we raised over $12 000 to finance the construction of two clean water
systems in Rural China. These systems will provide easy access to clean, safe
water, allowing girls to go to school and preventing the spread of water-borne
illnesses.
WHY ATTEND MINI WE DAY
REGINA?
If
your elementary school has already collaborated with the Campbell Me to We
Team, this is an incredible opportunity to get senior students interested in
leadership roles within the Me to We Team & SRC at your school, and for
students to learn more about the three Adopt-a-Village pillars that we will be voting
between for our global initiative in the spring.
