Every child deserves an education, no matter their circumstances or geography. But not every child actually does get to go to school or have access to a quality education.
If you have access to podcasts, you likely have privileges that many of our youth and young adults across the globe don’t have. You have a roof over your head; you have food on your table; and you likely have a job that allows you resources and luxuries that some wouldn’t even dream about.
One of those luxuries is likely time. No matter how busy you are, you don’t have to scavenge for food or other basic necessities. And that means you have the means to give back to those who do.
This week on the podcast, I’m sharing part two of a three-part series on the basic human right to an education. In the episode, I share three ways you can make a positive difference in your own life that allows you to, at the same time, give back to others.
If you care about our youth on a global scale, listen in!
