Our upcoming VC for Hope will focus on Globalization & Food - empowering youth to define "food security" within their own communities and understand its global importance. Participants will come face to face with Nicaraguan students and share stories about food, culture, day to day realities and more. The goal is to fundraise $20,000 to build 10 Community Gardens throughout the region of BOSAWAS rainforest reserve of Nicaragua - where many people are currently facing food shortages & high rates of poverty. Gardens will improve seed diversity, ensure food for children & improve nutrition - which will also increase learning potential  for school children.
