  • Tells youth how to cope with a difficult online situation.
  • Tells how to get help when they need it.
  • There is even an app to connect to a kids help phone counsellor called "The Always There" app.

Mini We Day - January 23, 2013


The We Day founder, Craig Kielburger was 12 years old in 1995 when he was inspired to make a difference. His story shows that young people have the power to change the world. His foundation, Free The Children, has a mission to create a world where all young people are free to achieve their fullest potential as agents of change.  In 1995 Craig Kielburger  gathered 11 school friends to begin fighting child labour. He was 12. On January 23rd at 1:00 in the ÉMMS gym, we will be hosting our own Mini We Day in order to celebrate a movement towards change and to inspire our students!!!!! Parents are welcome to attend but space is very limited. www.weday.com
