FY21 Q4 Japan Community Impact session for Tokyo YWCA Fund
このファンドはCCNが6/23に実施する東京YWCA様をお招きして実施するウェビナー向けのものになります。 セッションを見て、活動に賛同される方はぜひ、ご協力をお願いいたします。 現在、コロナ渦のため、NPOもこれまでのようにボランティア活動ができず、支援を必要としている人へのサポートが難しい状況にあります。日本社会に貢献しているNPOに寄付で貢献してみませんか? これまで、ボランティア活動や寄付の経験がない方もこれを機にぜひ、ご協力いただければと思います。 一般的に他者へ貢献すると自分の幸福度も上がる傾向があるといわれています。 現在、私たちが住んでいる日本も含めて、世界中でボランティアや支援を必要としている人たちがいます。このような難しい局面である時こそ、私達のConscious Culture (自己理解、他者への理解、自分が他者(チーム、お客様、より大きなコミュニティー)にもたらす影響に常に目を向け理解し、意図的に行動することにより最高の体験を生み出す)を体現し、サポートを必要としている人たちを支援していきましょう。 This fund will be for the webinar that CCN will be conducting on June 23, inviting the Tokyo YWCA. If you have seen the session and agree with our activities, we would appreciate your support. Due to the corona vortex, NPOs are not able to volunteer as much as they used to, making it difficult to provide support to those who need it. Why don't you make a donation to an NPO that is contributing to Japanese society? Even if you have never volunteered or donated before, we hope you will take this opportunity to do so. In general, it is said that contributing to others tends to increase one's own happiness. Currently, there are people all over the world, including in Japan where we live, who need volunteers and support. It is in these difficult times that we must embody our Conscious Culture (self-awareness, understanding of others, always looking at and understanding the impact we have on others (our team, our customers, the larger community), and acting intentionally to create the best possible experience) and help those who need support. Let's help those who need support.

Nigerian Youth Headstart - Connect and Elevate STEM Workshops Fund
STEM exposure and Certification enablement. Nigerian Young Adults Headstart: Close the employment Gap through Cisco Certification for the young adults. Connect and Elevate reaches across the ocean to develop and train Nigerian youth with Cisco CCNA and AWS technical skills to certify the young adult. The goal is to help close the unemployment gap. Bloomberg Economic Article statistics states that 53.4% of Nigerian adults from the age of 20-34 are unemployed. This unemployment rate is partly due to the lack of certification, such as the sought-after Cisco technical skills required by employers in enterprises, the financial sector, and service providers. This Campaign will enable Connect and Elevate to train 50 of these students and provide the top 20 young adults who attend the 2 weeks bootcamp with paid CCNA vouchers/scholarships to take the CCNA examination. Connect and Elevate STEAM Exposure Workshops: According to the National Math and Science Initiative, "60% of the new jobs that will open in the 21st century will require skills possessed by only 20% of the current workforce." Connect and Elevate prepares tomorrow's leaders today with problem-based learning and hands-on activities that ignite the passion for STEM. This Campaign will enable Connect and Elevate to provide 50 youth ages 13-18 years old with a FUN-FILLED days of hands on exploration, collaboration, problem solving, critical thinking, ideation and innovation. Each participant will gain the following: • Learn while doing build over 511 different electronics projects such as digital voice recorder, AM/FM radio, AC generator, screaming fan, whistle switch and much more! • Provides opportunity to teach children creativity and mechanical principles. The robotics kit teaches the value of recycling by re-purposing a used soda can into a moving, functional robot. • Encourage young Eco-engineers to explore alternate energy sources through basic mechanical concepts, Delve into STEM concepts and learn how to convert sunlight into energy to power a moving car.

Spring Bud Project Fund
In 1989, under the leadership of All China Women's Federation (ACWF), China Children and Teenagers’Fund (CCTF) launched, organized and carried out the Spring Bud Project,which is a social welfare program mobilizing social forces to help dropout girls return to school and to improve teaching conditions in poverty-stricken areas. The project has played an important role in assisting the government in developing the welfare education for the needy children. In the past 20 years, the Chinese Government has been continuously concerned with the Spring Bud Project and people from all walks of life have generously donated for the project. The Spring Bud Project has been keeping up with the times and innovating constantly. The project involves a series of welfare actions, including "Student Aid Action”, “Talents Cultivation Action”, “ Employment Action", "Special Action in Caring for Left-behind Children" and “Bud Protection Action”. Beneficiaries from the project and the derived actions expanded from girls of nine-year compulsory education to girls of high schools and colleges, from rural poor children to left-behind and migrant children, from vocational education and training of elder girls to professional training of school teachers, and from educational aid to care for physical and psychological safety for school girls. As the scope of the project has become diversified, the area of the funding has been expanding and the beneficiary has been broadening. The Spring Bud Project has gradually established an overall aid system of education, safety and health for children, especially for girls. So far, the Spring Bud Project has aided more than 3.69 million poverty-stricken girls to return to school, built 1,811 Spring Bud schools, vocational education and training for more than 527,000 girls, and compiled 2.17 million safety manuals for school girls. A large number of “Spring Bud” students have become professionals in society, who are contributing their intelligence and talents to urban modernization of China.
