SWY18 Fundraiser - 2/19/06
 | The Volunteer Group's big onboard fundraiser was a huge success!
Volunteers sponsored a Bahraini tea stand, flea market, massage booth,
make-up, manicures, raffle, auction and so much more! The over US$2000
raised went to support programs in India and Kenya where SWY18 PYs are
actively working. See photos and learn more about SIDAREC

UN Youth Delegates
| SWY18 Volunteer Group members are committed to expanding participation in the
United Nations Youth Delegates program.
We will be actively working for greater youth involvement by liaising with national UN leaders to support a delegate trip,
setting up delegate selection procedures, and coordinating with past delegates. |
