We become something together that we could never be apart. The impact of young people joining forces in a movement of change makers is truly transformative. When unique giftings and capabilities unite, they become game-changing forces, shaping history through combined efforts. Love Your City embodies this ethos as a global movement of local movements, where young individuals form "leagues of superheroes." These leagues venture into distressed neighborhoods, refugee camps, and slums, spreading hope and making a difference. #LoveYourCity #ChangeMakers #GlobalMovement

I truly believe in standing by each other, not just lending a hand. We all need someone in our corner, cheering us on and helping us reach our dreams. It's about more than just helping – it's about supporting by believing in each other's abilities and giving each other the support we need to succeed.

Catalyzing change takes collaboration. Take it from Sasha Chanoff, CEO and Founder of RefugePoint. As we learned from Sasha on this week's episode, bold transformation does not happen with one person or organization but with many coming together under a North Star. For RefugePoint and 30 other organizations, their North Star was fixing the broken refugee resettlement system. Together, they created the Self-Reliance Index, a tool that helps measure a refugee's progress toward self-reliance. The end goal? To empower all refugees to become dignified citizens in their new home country. 🎧 Listen here: https://lnkd.in/evk5WqDZ

Gain knowledge from reading and knowledge is power. #reading #knowledge #knowledgeispower #learning
“The Reading Recovery programme is a ray of light for girls in our school,” says Ms. Abu Elem, a teacher in Za’atari refugee camp in Jordan. Reading has a transformative power — it helps girls break barriers, discover their voices and unlock a world of possibilities. #LetMeLearn
