WHAT
EXACTLY IS THE YOUNG COMMUNITY BUILDERS PROGRAM? |
|
| |
- The
“Young Community Builders Program of Greater Sudbury” is a
youth-initiative that is being sponsored by Scotiabank and a
number of prominent community-minded businesses, professional
practitioners and public-sector organizations.
- The program is
being coordinated by Robert Kirwan, an Independent Education
& Career Planning Agent who owns and operates The
Greater Sudbury Learning Clinic.
|
|
WHAT
ARE THE MAIN OBJECTIVES
OF THE YOUNG COMMUNITY BUILDERS PROGRAM? |
|
The Young Community Builders Program of
Greater Sudbury has three main objectives:
|
First:
To encourage students
to
participate in
activities that
will
make
their community a better place in which to live.
|
- In order to accomplish this
objective the Young Community Builders Program will seek to find
corporate sponsors willing to provide funding to help cover the
costs of special projects and activities involving young people
currently attending elementary and secondary schools of the
Greater Sudbury Area.
- It is our belief that there are
many corporate citizens in the community who would be more than
willing to provide funding for projects and initiatives that
will benefit in the development of
our young people in elementary and secondary schools.
- Therefore, The Learning Clinic
is establishing a procedure which will help make sponsors aware
of such opportunities that exist in our local schools and then
facilitate the funding of these projects.
|
Second:
To showcase the accomplishments and achievements of exemplary
students of the Greater Sudbury Area in order that others may also
be inspired and motivated in fulfilling their own goals and
objectives.
|
|
-
In order to accomplish this
objective the Young Community Builders Program will publish
photos and stories about the students who have become exemplary
role models through the projects and initiatives in which they
have become involved.
-
We are well aware of the fact
that students in our elementary and secondary schools are
engaged in all kinds of wonderful activities during the year. We
want to showcase their accomplishments and achievements on this
web site to how our "communal" appreciation for their
efforts.
-
Their stories will be posted
permanently in a special section of the Young Community Builders
main web site where they can become a permanent source of inspiration to
others who are following in their footsteps.
|
|
Third:
To empower students and help them achieve their education and career
goals.
|
|
-
In order to accomplish this objective the Young Community Builders
Program will provide students with resources and information from
our business and professional sponsors that will help them become
more aware of the goods and services available within the City of
Greater Sudbury that will help them maximize their learning
potential and help them make wise decisions with respect to their
education and career planning.
-
Our sponsors are very
interested in helping young people realize their dreams and will
be doing everything possible to empower students in this regard.
