The MASFAA
Conference will be here before we know it!
Similar to
last year,
the MASFAA Conference Committee would like to hold
a raffle in order to support a local
organization. This year, the Committee has chosen
the Center for Teen Empowerment,
Inc. (TE) – an
organization that inspires young people, and the adults
who work
with them, to think deeply about the most difficult
social
problems in their schools and communities, and gives
them the tools to create significant and positive
change.
At Teen Empowerment's community-based sites
(there
are several in Massachusetts), staff and youth
organizers work together to identify critical issues
in their
school
and/or community and design and implement an action
plan that will address pressing issues in schools
and communities
today. Much of the youth's organizing work at these
sites focuses on building community among diverse
populations and working towards producing safe neighborhoods
for
all.
If you would like to check out the camp’s
website and learn more about their successful programs,
please

The MASFAA Conference
Committee is reaching out to you in hopes that you
will be interested in donating
a raffle
item to this worthwhile program. ALL raffle proceeds
will be donated to Teen Empowerment, Inc.
If you
have any questions or would like to share your donation,
