If you’re a regular reader, you already know that one of the main reasons I’m so passionate about education is it’s ability to transform people’s lives. I get to support that transformation through my work with the Young Dreamer Network (YDN), a nonprofit organization based in Redwood City, CA that works with youth in India, Costa Rica, Guatemala and Ghana to empower them to become agents of change in their communities.
YDN recently released Slum of Dreams, a compelling short film (<20min) that profiles the lives of 2 Young Dreamers in the Ambedkar Nagar Slum in Jaipur, India. If you’re interested in seeing how a small organization can have a massive impact on students on the other side of the world, please watch and share this video.
