Why We Do It
- Inspiration & Fun: Joyful moments spark imagination and show what’s possible beyond everyday life.
- Feeling Seen: Young people thrive when they feel connected, valued, and have access to positive relationships and meaningful experiences. These moments are particularly relevant to adolescents and young adults who are in formative stages of emotional growth and identity development.
- Community Connection: Doing something kind for others is good for our communities and the world. Shared moments foster greater trust, belonging, confidence, and optimism. These feelings build resilience and fuel a sense of agency in young people.
