SLU Better Together

s on the issue of youth global awareness this year. We are currently executing a global learning program in conjunction with Youth Learning Center. This is a once a month, afterschool program that teaches them about different countries and regions of the world through simulations, games, and activities. We hope that by doing this we will be exposing children to cultures and ideas they might have otherwise not known about. Furthermore, we hope this knowledge will equip them to work towards bettering their community, which in turn will lead to a greater outreach of strong, empowered individuals. Most importantly, by working one on one with these students, we plan to create global citizens; kids who respect and appreciate other’s cultures. We are also coordinating other service opportunities with groups around St. Louis working towards the same cause, including Belas Artes, St. Louis Language Immersion School, and Operation Cooperation.
