Words Into Action
February 2012
During Black History Month, we honor the achievements of African Americans in science, politics,
business, arts, sports, and literature. Because the achievements of African Americans were once ignored by history, this month is an opportunity to give voice to people and ideas that were muted in their own time.
The challenge this month is to celebrate diversity through advocacy, which means “the act of supporting a cause.” You will do this by lending your voice to the words of famous African-American advocates and
turning those words into positive action.

Peace Cranes
January 2012
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. believed in justice and fairness and taught people how to stand up for their rights using peaceful protest. This month, in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, generationOn challenges youth to contribute toward making 1,000 origami peace cranes to inspire others to be peacemakers. Then tell others how you will promote peace by completing a peace pledge.
“Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.” Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Holidays 2011

This holiday season, take the traditional holiday donation or drive in a new direction. You’ve collected canned and prepared foods, blankets, coats, and books. Not many people think of donating something simple that they use every day. This item is needed by people who have limited resources because of unemployment, homelessness, fire, or natural disaster. Read our riddle and see if you can figure it out.
