Dear friends and supporters,
First, thank you for making this possible for our youth!! As we continue recovering from the pandemic and navigating through these uncertain times, we want to let you know that our youth participants have remained persistent and committed to their community leadership development.
With your support, our youth in the TIBOCO project were able to visit communities in Puerto Rico, such as Caño Martin Peña. Recently, youth have been able to learn about community needs, speak with community leaders, visit a community garden and enjoy a bike tour! More specifically, our youth from Juncos visited Casa Pueblo where they learned more about Puerto Rico's rich culture. Casa pueblo is a community self-management project that is dedicated to appreciating and protecting natural, cultural and human resources. Our youth will become better leaders by learning about their own community and its history.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping to realize successful projects for our youth to remain strong and vibrant as they grow as leaders. We will continue sharing their special stories of development and growth within the program.
We are all thankful for all your support!
With gratitude,
Jóvenes de Puerto Rico en Riesgo Team
