The Youth and Philanthropy Initiative YPI is an active citizenship programme that raises awareness amongst young people about philanthropy and their local community. Each participating school each year is responsible for directing a \u00a33000 YPI grant to a small local charity of their choice. This is done through a unique programme of teamwork, research and competition.<\/p>\n

During May and June, we were working with Chris\u2019s House for our YPI presentation. Chris\u2019s House is a charity based in Wishaw, which aims to help anyone suffering with suicidal thoughts. They also aim to help the victims\u2019 families, friends, and other loved ones. We chose Chris\u2019s House because they are an effective local charity, and mental health is getting more and more common amongst the young people in our local area and we would like to make this more known. Being a small charity we were really pleased for them as the \u00a33000 will be a great boost to their funds.<\/p>\n

When we got into the finals we were really nervous and excited at the same time. When the winner was announced we were absolutely speechless. We never thought that we would win, considering how great the other presentations were.<\/p>\n

In the future we plan to keep supporting Chris\u2019s House and attend as many fundraisers as we can.<\/p>\n
