Imagine If ……..Story Contest MDGs

United Nations Millennium Development Goals

Imagine not having enough to eat or going to work to support your family at the age of 8 years old. What if you never had the chance to learn to read or write? In 1500 words or less we ask students to imagine life without running water, electricity, healthcare, or education. Students must review the MDG’s and IMAGINE IF…….. These resources were available to everyone.

Stories will be judged according to creativity, quality of writing, and the extent to which they promote awareness of one or more of the millennium development goals.

SASEF is working to raise youth awareness of the United Nations Eight Millennium Development Goals and global poverty. It is our hope the stories written will bring new ideas and solutions inspiring others to take action.
On Saturday, June 20th at 13:30 every participant is invited to read their stories aloud. There will be special prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place entries.
Stories will be bound into a book all proceeds from the event and sale of the book will go to the Shirley Ann Sullivan Educational Foundation to support our work in helping to achieve the Millennium Development Goals.
