The Me to We Trips Tour Keeps We Day Participants Involved
Alyson Wyers — May 8, 2015 — World
For engaged young people who attended a We Day and want to stay connected with the organization behind the movement, there is the Me to We Trips Tour. Free the Children's signature youth empowerment event takes place across Canada and the United States as well Britain, celebrating the domestic and international actions young people take to change the world. For many, the next step is getting involved with their live-changing Me to We experiences, such as a volunteer trip to a Free the Children community in a developing country or leadership camp closer to home.
The Me to We trips tour keeps young activists connected to the We Day movement, as past participants, trip experts and even We Day speakers give young people the information and the tools they need to create change.
