| These lab tours will give the youth of the Boston/Cambridge area a
chance to get their feet wet in the area of technology. Seeing the
different MIT exhibits such robotic ants, holograms, and amazing computers
will hopefully excite our youth about their future and a possible future
in technology.
Rhythm of the Youth!
This program was a huge success last April; it introduced many youth in
Boston (as well as MIT students) to positive cultural dance activities
offered by our own in Boston, Cambridge, and the New England area.
It will continue next April once again with breakdancing, capoeira, africna
dancing, drumming, hip hop, freestyling, and maybe more. Check the
homepage for updates.
the Initiatives Project
Groove Phi Groove asks for your help in the empowerment of youths in our
community for the New Millenium. The Initiatives Project seeks to
foster and encourage dreams our local youth have of bettering their communities,
making them a vivrant place in which to grow and live. In the Summer
of 2002, a campaign will be launched to find some of the most worthiest
and impacting community service plans that come directly from the mind
of our local elementary and high school youth. Through competition,
they will be challenged to create solutions to problems they see and may
even face in their neighborhoods everyday. Several winners will be
selected through a semi-final and final round. Those winners will
have all the support needed to make their community service proposal a
reality. Their support will come from the partnerships we intend
to make over the next year in Boston in support of the Initiatives Project
as well as through funding we intend to raise for the project. We
hope we can count on you to donate money or services to this project.
Your help would lend a great hand to this project as well as to the youth
of the Boston area.
