Latinitas has joined the international movement - Global Youth Service Day. This is the largest service event in the world and mobilizes millions of children and youth who improve their communities through service-learning. On GYSD, Latinitas members will help address the world’s most critical issues through youth-led community service projects.
Throughout the Spring semester, Latinitas has been leading the Amigas in Action Project, an initiative that engages members of our after-school programs in researching community needs, organizing volunteer projects to address these issues and creating media projects about their service learning experience as part of a public awareness campaign. Each Club Latinitas has directed a service project based on an issue they choose as well as an advocacy project to showcase their service learning experience. Hispanic girls in our clubs have also learned how to create multi-media projects through writing, photography, desktop publishing, graphic art, web design, film-making and audio production. Their multi-media public service announcements are aimed at helping raise community awareness of the issues they selected. Their written, photo, art, film, online or audio projects that will be distributed online, at schools and to the media.
