An organization that brings kids from all different neighborhoods in Los Angeles together. Our goal is to bring children together and put them in a position to thrive in a world that is rapidly mixing our cultures.
The organization will conduct itself like a summer camp. Inviting children from different neighborhoods and school districts to join in the immersion process. While there, the activities that undergo are placed to inform all the children of each others culture. I believe that this will bring up thought provoking questions and topics between campers. I am passionate about this organization because I truly believe if we target children for immersion then we can put ourselves in a position to be truly diverse in the future.
This will be a place where we can truly have conversations about situations in our communities that would be otherwise eye opening or shocking to people that didn't know. I want this experience to be pure, and without outside influence. With that being said, I would much rather have the campers be isolated from their family and friends.
There are a couple weaknesses that could come with this. For one, the fact that this experience is isolated could make for little to no effect when the campers go back home. The campers are liable to forget everything that they learned because children have short attention spans and malleable minds. Another weakness is the fact that children have selective minds. They choose what they want to pay attention to. The ways I believe we make this experience one, that will be something worth remembering and impactful is by sprinkling camp like activities within the serious conversations.
I believe my organization is unique because there aren't a lot of organizations that specifically aim to immerse other children in each others culture and situation. Most programs like the YMCA and Boys and Girls club bring children of the same neighborhood together. This is amazing because it brings the community together, but it doesn't help the problem. I think Anima Mundi Development Partners should support our program because the effort you put into the kids now will affect our future and the choices our young ones make down the line.
