MEDIA AND PUBLIC EVENTSEVENTWhat's New - July 8th, 2009
New Web Campaign to Break the Cycle of Youth ViolenceIn light of the gang violence crisis gripping the Lower Mainland, The United Way of the Lower Mainland (UWLM) has launched a web-based campaign to provide a way for people to act together and break the cycle of violence by investing in intervention and prevention.Recent research shows that early learning prevents youth violence. And that every dollar invested in preventive preschool programs produces a $7 benefit by the time the child is a young adult, and a $13 benefit by the time he is a mature adult. For the month of March, the United Way is urging concerned individuals to give as little as $10 and share this appeal with 10 others. By sending an e-mail with the website link to your own networks of friends, families and colleagues, we can all work together to act on the root cause of social problems and support programs and services that make a difference. Thank you for helping to spread the knowledge of this campaign.
Status: Confirmed
Announced on: March 18th, 2009
