Buy a Raffle Ticket and Help a Youth in our Worldwide Fundraising Raffle!
For just $15 a ticket, you can enter our Worldwide Raffle to win one of the prizes below! Your contributions will help make it possible for youth from around the world to attend the 2011 Play in the Wild! International Youth Intensive: Artistry of Peace, especially at a time when airfares are unusually expensive. From a hopeful parent:

 "This would be an incredible learning and deepening experience for my daughter to have. As she is growing into herself, it offers the opportunity to connect with authentic, inspiring, and empowering people. This connection can be a reference point for her as she witnesses and participates in a rapidly changing world. It would bring great joy to see her collectively creating with others from around the world in such an inspiring context."

Last year, at our 2010 International Youth Intensive, we were fortunate to be able to document many of the extraordinary moments on video. This year, for the first time, we are proud to be able to offer you, our supporters, a rare glimpse into the community of nonviolence that was created, including hearing directly from the youth about the experience:
Here is a video of last year's PITW intensive  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlbKCaPxthU which gives a taste of its inspiring power. 

If it has ease for you please send this email to anyone else who may be interested in supporting youth to attend this year's Play in the Wild! International Youth Intensive?

If you have any questions about Play in the Wild!, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Peace All Ways,
Catherine
