SMILING FUTURE EMPOWERİNG UNDERPRIVILAGED PRE-SCHOOL CHİLDREN
In last couple of weeks a group of scout leaders from India Turkey and Gambia we are exchanging information on workshops made by scout and guide leaders mostly in india . These workshops are for underprivileged children. They are at Cub Beaver ages and younger. Three of these leaders are Ashvanee Kumar Srivastav, Rinki Tamar, Sonali Singh have great experience on workshops. They are getting together on roadsides parks, empty lots and school gardens and posting their action on scout org and our group. I am introducing t ideas with digests to them from my experience on YUNGA challenges for 5 -10 years, UNESCO peace games, WOSM books like Scouting and peace, Building Peace Together, UNESCO Legends of Peace WOSM Gifts for peace programs 0f centenary , Collections of UNEP Children Painting competitions
I am writing this to find leaders from every county to share our proceedings and learn their innovations on the issue.
I decided to write this after a received a photo from World food Program asking donations with a photo of Syrian Children . May be we can’t make this with cash but Our leaders worldwide can do similar work to make them ready for their tomorrows. We empower them from now on
This is my letter to friends
See this photo how we can help to these children with our smiling future programs (The name we gave to this initiative). How we can we teach other scout leaders to make these programs with what games, what information, which coloring books, which information posters. I really find it for those children in my country We have over one million of them. ,You Ashvanee, Rinki and Sonali are the people who can make it because you are working on location with direct contact with children You can hear their hearts to make the best.

Have you seen this photo?

Have you seen this photo?
A new Pokémon game has taken the world by storm, with millions of players around the world searching everywhere to find and save Pokémon characters.
But some people are starting to wonder, what if we turn attention away from this game, and instead to the suffering of children in war-torn Syria? In response, Syrian children have been pictured with Pokémon characters as a plea to the world to come to their rescue.
Here’s the story behind the photo above, taken in Syria by Abeer Etefa, who works for the World Food Program:
I was surprised when I saw a Pokémon pop up in this photo I took in 2012. I could never forget this boy. I met him in Homs, on my first trip to Syria after the war broke out. I was startled by the sounds of nearby shelling and he ran to me, held my hand, and told me not to be afraid because he is an expert now and knows the shelling is not very close to us.
He and his family had just returned, after months of fighting, to their ruined home -- but in his words, he said: “It is damaged, but it is still home, and I am happy to be back.” His only wish was to go back to school and have a normal life again.
He is one of many Syrians who have touched my heart. His picture has become an iconic image of the war in Syria and the millions of children whose lives were shattered in the last six years.
