On-campus Event: The Supply Movie Screening
Please join AIESEC Seattle and The Supply Education Group for a screening of the 30-minute documentary “Standard 8” and a panel on volunteer opportunities in African countries on Tuesday, April 12th at 6:30pm in Miller Hall 301.
Synopsis: “Standard 8” follows the eighth grade class at Daghoretti Youth Centre in the slum village of Lenana, Kenya as they prepare to take the KCPE National Exam to receive their 8th grade certificates. Because there is no secondary school in Lenana, an eighth grade certificate is the hallmark of their education.
Despite the challenges of extreme poverty, disease, limited access to clean water, and a high number of orphaned children, education is thriving in Lenana as students and families are realizing that the only way out of poverty is education. However, DYC's budget of $7,000 USD has to service over 200 students and orphans, the corruption in Kenya prevents the school from receiving proper textbooks and supplies, and the community is growing deeper in poverty. In fact, many parents have to take their children out of school because they cannot afford the $3 a month school fee. Will the 8th grade students overcome these challenges? Or will these challenges shatter their opportunity to learn and dream?
Following the screening, representatives from various organizations will be available to discuss their volunteer opportunities in Africa and Seattle.
RSVP at http://tinyurl.com/thesupplyRSVP and visit our facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=152461114817732.
WE ARE ALL THE SUPPLY
The Supply Education Group is a not-for-profit operating organization whose exclusive purpose is to empower and transform communities through education. We move from village to village in developing countries working with local schools and community leaders on educational projects that secure the education for all children, positively impact the communities, and generate income for schools to become self-sufficient. The hope is that this input of resources will create a long-term ripple effect, creating local leaders, driving economies, fighting corruption, and allowing communities to pull themselves out of poverty.

Upcoming Event: Common Spaces Northwest
Common Spaces Northwest is a gathering for those interested or involved in various social or environmental justice issues to come together to discover commonalities, share ideas, and learn through one another. It was created by a collection of organizations and individuals from around Seattle who are interested in a wide range of issues, from labor rights to food justice to equal health and race and gender issues. Common Spaces will take the form of a three-day series of activities, on April 21st through 23rd, at the University of Washington campus.
The activities that will make up Common Spaces are submitted by a variety of individuals with a variety of interests affiliated with a variety of organizations. They range from panels and movie screenings on various social justice issues to a poetry slam, a skill share on campus organizing, an explanatory workshop on the UW budget, and a tutorial on video-editing for activists/artists. A complete list of events will soon be available on our website: http://www.commonspacesnw.com
We envision Common Spaces drawing people together to learn from each other, to share experiences, to get introduced to different kinds of thinking, to become more aware of what is going on outside of their normal range of activity, and to interact with people attuned to acting against oppression. Whether you are an old-hand at organizing or someone with just recently burgeoning interest in social/environmental justice issues, this is a space for you to come, share your perspective, and learn more. Please join us and tell your friends. Note that this event is NOT JUST FOR STUDENTS, so invite off-campus friends as well.
Finally, we are still currently accepting activity submissions. To submit a workshop, please fill out the form at https://catalyst.uw.edu/webq/survey/cajmera/127431 by Monday, April 11th. An activity could be anything you would like to share or raise discussion around in this Common Space. Our only request is that activities be as collaborative as possible.
