This year, for the first time ever, UWC New York (that’s us!) are hosting 12 first-year students from UWC-USA. They are in New York staying with alumni from Saturday March 7th to Sunday March 15th.
4 of the 12 UWC-USA first years coming to NY for project week will be volunteering with Adaptive Design Association, a wonderful charity that aims to provide children with disabilities with the customized adaptations they need. (http://www.adaptivedesign.org/) . On Thursday, Mar 12th they will present the adaptations they've been working on and we'll get a tour of the ADA facilities to better understand the great work they do.
We encourage you to come. Admission is free (RSVP to the FB event) and we will be serving light refreshments.
We want YOU to get involved! This is probably the most exciting initiative we’ve organized and we hope to make it a yearly tradition that will strengthen the bonds between students and alumni. Start by showing at one event. If you have other ideas on how you could help, please e-mail us at uwc.new.york@gmail.com. We’ll be announcing additional events as well as profiling our visiting first-year students in the coming weeks. So stay tuned!
Warm Regards,
The UWC - NY Board (Kevin, Megan, Ryan, Niraj, Faika, Heske, Bonnie, Brian and Waltraud)
