CALLING ALL MY TALENTED, CREATIVE AND BOLD FRIENDS!
okay, here's the deal.
i've always been keen in being part of the YOG2010 action. and today, i came across a mail from NUS that provided me with some awesome information and insights about how i could do just that, besides being solely a volunteer for the event. the information are as follows:
The Singapore Youth Olympic Games Organising Committee (SYOGOC) and the Young ChangeMakers (YCM) under the National Youth Council (NYC) is introducing a grant scheme to inspire youths to embark on YOG-themed projects within their schools or communities.
Seed funding, non-monetary support and resources are provided to youths who want to make a meaningful change in their community and encourage people to live by the Olympic values of Excellence, Friendship and Respect.
You CAN! Create Action Now for Singapore 2010
The Singapore 2010 being for youth by youth, we would like to encourage all of you out there to take ownership and Create Action Now!
WHAT WE CAN DO?
let's meet up and come up with something AWESOME! and i know we can do this, because all of us are specialised in one skill or another. and this is the chance for ALL OF US to collaborate and finally work together again for something BIG! and this event could also be a collaboration between various educational institutions. after reading the event starter kit, i think it would be great if we could do something that's along the themes of environment and the arts - since most of us are more inclined towards it :) anyway, if our event is approved, we are entitled to the $4000 grant from the SYOG council.
i believe this is a great opportunity for us to put our creative minds together and come up with something real - it's about time! Let's brainstorm and create our own project!
drop me a text if you're keen and interested! (if any of my cousins are keen too, keep me informed!)
