The Casady Fair Trade Chocolate 3rd grade service-learning project teaches students about social justice and environmental stewardship as they learn about fair trade and marketing through interdisciplinary initiatives. Students sell fair trade chocolate and donate proceeds by percentages to charities whose mission, vision, and practices they research before allocating funding.. See the display at the Wing showcased at the 2014 National Service-Learning Conference
Why YAC Bookmark &
Bodine Elementary Mini Library Challenge
Join
the Casady YAC, Students
Rebuild, Save
the Children and Global Nomads Group to improve youth reading and writing
skills around the world! Make a
bookmark.
YAC
will mail bookmarks after school Tuesday, April 21. For each bookmark sent, the Benson Family
Foundation will
donate $1—up to $300,000—to Save the Children’s Literacy Boost program in Latin America (Peru),
Africa (Mali) and Asia (Nepal).
Save the Children will
distribute bookmarks to Literacy Boost students
around the world. Funding generated by the Challenge will stock Save the
Children’s international book banks in Peru, Mali and Nepal, improve school
attendance, reading comprehension and self-confidence.
Why is reading and writing so important? Illiteracy can lead to poverty, low
self-esteem and isolation, poor health, unemployment / weak economies,
inequality and more. Worldwide, 250 million children of primary school
age cannot read or write—whether they attend school or not. More than 30
million girls are out of school today and children from the poorest 20% of the
population are four times more likely to be out of school than their wealthier
peers.
BODINE ELEMENTARY MINI FREE
LIBRARY was inspired in the Little Free Library online
initiative. It is a take a book,
return a book-gathering place. In its
most basic form is a box full of books where anyone may stop by and pick a book
or two and bring other books to share.
During National Volunteer Week, bring a book new or gently used to the
BODINE ELEMENTARY BIG mini free library BOX @ the Casady Wing. Ask Ananya B.’17, Why Bodine Elementary?
