Charities For Children

In case you hadn’t guessed, International Youth Day activities are in full swing at the United Nations in New York, and eleven of Children International’s sponsored youth are in attendance. This is José Enrrique, our delegate from the Dominican Republic:





"I am very excited about this trip to New York. For me it's a dream come true. This is a unique and special trip because not everyone can have this opportunity that I have. They chose me because I have shown my dedication. I am a very lucky person.

My family supports me a lot, and they give me the confidence to do it well. I have a lot to share about the environment and the youth in my country. I'm going with an open mind, so that I can learn from others. I am very excited."
