Leadership Transformed
Outreach becomes the litmus test for education, an opportunity to put education to work and connect real world issues to academics.
A partnership that builds sustainable connections of depth, and programs that combine education, empowerment, community, and financial resources
Teens assessing their local and global communities and using their voice to declare a mission to resolve chronic issues using the skills learned in the LEAP to Lead class—and practiced throughout the cycle of leadership
No choice needed—LEAP is a collaborative effort among three local and global communities
Diverse leadership training as part of a sustainable cycle of leadership with a commitment to:
• Build self aware individuals
• Test each individual’s ability to successfully use his skills to see his vision become a reality, and prove the value of personal connections
Leaders Educated And Prepared
• Empowerment vs. entitlement
• United communities connected by a diverse team of equals
• A ‘culture of aid’ transformed to a culture of sustainable partnerships
• Confident young adults with skills to assess and collaborate
• Young leaders with a conviction to solve problems rather than wait for others to solve them
• Connection between teens and community professionals who have the know how to carry out their vision
• Micro-enterprise
• Business development skills
• Efficient use of time
• Global and local awareness
• Diverse cultural and socioeconomic perspectives combined to resolve problems
• Outreach as a test of leadership skills and individual resilience to break down barriers that keep communities weak
• Sustainable local and global programs, run by leaders who have been educated with the conviction, resilience, and skills to succeed
Outreach is currently an “after-school program”, often a box to check off for your college application rather than an integrated part of our education
