STUDENTS REBUILD: A PATH FORWARD
Join the new Students Rebuild challenge, “A Path Forward,” to take a collective stand against humanitarian crises by making a bone—out of material you choose—as part of a participatory arts project to cover the National Mall in Washington, D.C. with 1,000,000 handmade bones. This gesture of unity and hope will have a powerful visual impact, generate critical funds, raise awareness, and help rebuild lives in Somalia and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
These handmade bones can help raise $500,000! Every 120,000 handmade bones contributed to the One Million Bones campaign by June 1, 2012 will generate $100,000 for CARE, a leading humanitarian organization fighting global poverty.
The latest Rebuilder, college student Mara Magyarosi, brought the challenge to her local high school- Henry Ford Academy School for Creative Arts (Detroit, Michigan)- where she rallied 18 classrooms to build 1,983 bones! Be Inspired. Rally your classroom to take action today.
