Students at Samuel Wolfson School for Advanced Studies in FLorida are eager to collaborate with this project to deepen their engagement with global issues. By directing their club activities, they aim to address the immediate needs of a particular community, achieving tangible results. Their goal is to contribute positively and foster global literacy and health systems. Those involved in this initiative at Wolfson are part of the IB CAS program.

Kaylee, a sophomore at Samuel Wolfson, is deeply committed to helping others. Alongside her friend Emerson, she participated in the H2O for Life Fellowship Program, supporting the Jhariya Gagadi community in India. The knowledge she acquired from various speakers during the last school year has significantly influenced her career exploration.

Here are some quotes from the students:

“Our initiative involved selling cotton candy at school functions to fundraise for the Global Water Crisis. We aimed to educate at least 15 individuals, hoping they would disseminate the information to more students and their families.”

“This project impacted my view on the Global Water Crisis because I can now see that anyone can contribute to solving this crisis and that coming together to solve issues is extremely important.”

“Serving others inspires me to continue helping to resolve issues in my community and around the world.”

“Service in the context of classroom learning is important because it allows direct involvement in the issues we learn about.”
