PAVE Summer 2015

We are back for the third year in a row with the P.A.V.E program. As you know, the P.A.V.E. program is designed to teach youth how to give back to their community.  By participating in this program your child will develop leadership and communication skills, awareness of key world-issues, compassion for others, and most importantly the value and meaning of philanthropy.  The P.A.V.E. program is founded on the idea that teaching a child to give back to others will help to develop their self-esteem and scholastic performance, by providing the children with a sense of purpose and personal responsibility.      

This program is suitable for children of all ages but targeted at ages 7-13.

This year the P.A.V.E program is being offered in two tiers:

Key objectives of the P.A.V.E Tier I program are:

• Poise and Posture
• Communication and Public Speaking
• Leadership and Taking Initiative
• Fundraising for Charitable Causes
• The Value of Education
• Building Positive Friendships and Networking

PAVE Tier II includes:

• Philanthropic Behavior
• Finding a non-profit to support your cause
• Field trip to a non-profit
• Fundraising for your cause

Past PAVE students will have an opportunity to refresh their learning and mentor the new students. Both new and past students will learn fundraising through a real life project as part of PAVE-II.
