I'm standing in front of 20 or so second graders, with a sock puppet on my hand. "Bonjour," I say in a funny voice, and open and close my hand to move the sock puppet's mouth. "Je m'appelle François. My name is François." The students giggle. Next to me, another high schooler is busy scribbling...... [view]

Description: We give flowers to others to make them feel special on important occassions. And yes, selling flowers is also a source of livelihood. But lets give plants instead; they stay alive longer, spread greenery and contribute (even if in a small way) to the healthy environment! Let us spread the culture of "Give a plant as a gift!"

Description: Honor killing is a deadly crime practiced in the name of tradition and culture around the world. For centuries this custom has snatched away the lives of innocent women just for the sake of restoration of so-called honor, but the question is.....is it? Or is it mere satisfaction of male dominated societies to stay powerful? Honor killing is a bitter reality around the world, it lives in many forms where burning, axing down, stoning, and burying are rampant in many countries. Honor killings in each form can't be accepted and needs to be abolished. WAKE UP!!! Campaign against honor killings is a movement of both men and women around the world to bring the change that is needed to end this crime!

Description: It is very obvious Africa as a continent faces all the odds we can think about in our contemporary world. Despite Africa being the backbone of success everywhere in the world, the state of affairs in Africa does not depict its contribution to the success off shores. I believe Africa can cause a revolution in all the negative aspects of the world and the continent can change and be a living testimony to the assertion "from grass to grace". I have decided to dedicate my life in which ever way i can effect change and i know there are people out there who are willing to do same to enable us achieve change in Africa. The future of Africa lies in the hands of Africans and its about time to stand up and realize your potential of making this change a reality. No matter how difficult it might be it is worthy of trying. Mother Africa is calling please pick up the phone... http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=25392232624&ref=share

Description: Learning a new language can be quite the challenge for some people. But think about it this way, everytime you learn a new language you can add another millions of people to who you can get to know and have a conversation with. Learning a language can help you adapt to new places and also help you appreciate a new culture without the language barriers. With a new language you can learn how to read, write and speak fluently. I say, that's pretty darn impressive.

Description: Women today owe a lot to our predecessors who have paved the way for us to vote, work, have our voices heard and be recognized as persons. It is important to acknowledge women’s history, to take note of the progress made so that we can continue to fight oppression and marginalization. Women in every country of the world should be able to have autonomy, bodily integrity, receive an education, have the right to vote and hold public office, own property and work for fair and equal pay. We must learn from our past, for the sake of society; as the saying goes “those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”
