Global Youth Service Day: Mrs. Clay has applied to a GenerationON grant to advocate kindness and peace. If granted, the service-learning office will promote the creation of a "Charter for Compassion" mural at Casady and partner organizations and schools after we return from Spring Break. The mural will be unveiled at ice cream socials on Global Youth Service Days at the different locations where the mural was painted. The money requested will fund supplies and facilitation of mural making from a muralist and a mindfulness trainer. If the funding is not granted, s-l will promote making a quilt of the roots of service similar to one we made for the Respect Diversity Foundation Exhibit ON MLK DAY 2011 and given to Mr. and Mrs. Gill on the occasion of their retirement. The 2015 YAC quilt with the roots of service will be taken to the National Service-Learning Conference to be shared with the Shinnyo-en Foundation at the World Forum in DC.
