GOVERNOR'S PROJECT 2023-2024

Uplift Through Education

WHAT IS IT?

Uplift through Education strives to build the servant leaders of our District to give back to individuals in underprivileged communities through a multitude of community-driven events that focus on the empowerment and importance of education, research, and financial literacy. This project is intended to highlight that our district, as one, is unified as a team to help people from around the world who do not have access to resources and lesson plans to utilize in schools, universities, and beyond. As we rise together, we can uplift the many students, peers, and adults around us. It starts with education - through increasing the culture, teachings, and knowledge - from one person to another.

PURPOSE

According to a report studied by the United Nations, over 35% of children and adolescents around the world do not have access to educational resources. Compounding these inequities has created a digital divide which continues to grow, and individuals can face considerable barriers in the future without equal access - over two thirds of the percentage studied faces inaccessible technology usage within their home as well. The importance of uplifting others through education is to provide them with the opportunity to gain experiences and carry on the knowledge they obtain for their future endeavors. Many individuals around the world do not have access to different school-based resources because of differing circumstances.

Career Counseling

Sessions: Offer career guidance and mentorship to students and young adults. This can include resume building and careerdevelopment information

Educational Toy Drive: Gather educational toys and games for children in lowincome neighborhoods

Mentorship Circles: Form mentorship circles where individuals can support and learn from each other

STEM Program: Organize a STEM-themed program or competition that focuses on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) subjects. This program can include hands-on activities, experiments, and projects to make learning fun and engaging for students.
