in my school there is too many people that do not agree with glbt [gay, lesbian, bi, or transgender] kids. on april 25th we participated in the day of silence, there was a threat of someone being killed because one of the kids didnt agree with what we were doing.
by getting this grant i hope to help the staff at first and then hopefuly help the student body by having a DPI certified person come to the school and talk to the school.
thank you for taking the time to read this,

There are many problems facing today's Teens, and among the largest is religious discrimination, the lack of religious rights, and amount of solid study sources for those wishing to follow an alternative Faith such as Paganism. The Young Tree Pagan Educational Grove has been created to begin solving these problems, and work as a National organization which provides teens and their families with educational materials and events, but our purpose goes much further than that, as our mission statement and purpose states below.... So what is the purpose of Young Tree Grove?

This week is for promoting diversity and tolerance of everyone on campus at my high school. Each day will have a specific topic of discussion. The topics include Religion, Gender Orientation/ Sexual Preference, Race, and Disability. With each topic, comes activities and educational events. Along with each topic will also be a video, in each homeroom class, explaining what is going on throughout the week, and also a description of examples/ statistics of issues surrounding the topic of the day.

Bigger Than Greenpeace, Unicef, Amnesty International's main goals are to save the earth, end genocide, eliminate hunger, fight for human rights, and to teach tolerance. These ambitions represent a wide range of interests and will attract many people to understand and support these causes.

I am working with a group of east african somali youth to respect each other not on basis of tribilism but for who they are. in the end not only will the people that are watching the play benfit but they will benfit for them self. theater of the oppressed has been used in many country to express the feeling of people who are in many ways effected by issues in their lifes. this will teach them and the viewers how to resolve conflicts and always see another side of humans in genral.

Project PUMP (People Uniting More People) is an organization started by six high school seniors as part of their service learning project.We decided we wanted to work with kids and help them reach their full potential after reading alarming statistics such as:
*Children living in the lowest 20% of income brackets are SIX times more likely to drop out of high school as those living in the highest 20%.
*Of the 7.1 million children who have at least one parent in jail 70% of them will in turn end up in prison themselves.

Two years ago, some friends and I started a group at our school called Tolerance, Acceptance, and Fairness for the Free-thinking Youth (TAFFY Club). The first year we had trouble with the school administration, and not much happened. This last year, however, went great. We now have 30 members, and we are still growing. We participated in "Mix It Up at Lunch Day", we had a fundraiser for orphans around the world, and we organized a community art show. We also discussed tolerance issues in our school during monthly meetings.

The goal of this program is to provide a safe, fun place for community teens to meet and study, use computers, watch tv., eat, and learn about tolerance and diversity. This room is a part of the Wetherington Boys and Girls Club in North Little Rock, Arkansas. Currently there is no place in the building provided for teens to meet. They have no teens who attend.
We are remodeling a room and have been successful in making it a community effort. I serve on the NLR Mayor's Youth Coucnil and started this effort as my community project.
