Next week our sponsored youth delegates will be at the United Nations in New York for International Youth Day. Melvin Yubal, our delegate from the Philippines expresses what the Youth Program means to him:
The Youth Program is very important. It achieves a lot purposes. The youth program develops us. It gives us the chance to use of our talents and skills. In the program, we learn how to create, share our time and talents and nurture friendships. We learn to work together. We come to know a lot of information we can use when we are in difficult situations. The youth program functions as a support group too for those who want to change. This is also a venue for us to be involved in doing our share in addressing the issues that confront our fellow youth. All in all, the youth program accompanies young people in the process of growth.
