Kids Care attempts to build on Free The Children's success
Denny Scott
signal -star staff
Jacob McGavin from Walton
has high hopes with his youth
activist group; Kids Care.
The group, which started
at Brussels Public School, is
seeking to make the world a
better place.
McGavin graduated from
Brussels P.S. this June, and is
looking to follow Craig Kiel -
burger's path. Kielburger is
best known for his group; Free
The Children, which he start-
ed when he was 12. FCT now
spans the globe, fighting child
labour and poverty.
Kid's Care hasn't got their
own goal yet, all he knows is
he wants to help. The group is
currently donating the money
they raise to Free the Chil-
dren.
"I want to make a difference,
but we haven't picked a defi-
nite focus yet," McGavin said.
The group sells t -shirts and
bricks through the Brick By
Brick campaign, which helps
builds schools in impoverished
countries, to raise money for
Free the Children. After two
years working, the group has
raised half of their $20,000
goal.
"We know that kids can
make a difference,
[Kielburger] was proof
and we're proving it to."
- Jacob McGavin
Founder of Kids Care
Kids Cares' plans include
obtaining federal support to
put blue boxes beside every
public garbage can, and im-
plementing a Hallowe'en for
the Hungry program, where
youths trick -or -treat for dona-
tions instead of candy.
"We know that kids can make
a difference, [Kielburger] was
proof, and we're proving it
too," McGavin said, adding
that almost everything in his
group is done by the approxi-
mately 40 youths that run it.
"We have six executive mem-
bers," he said. "And my mom,
she's our honourary CEO, she
drives us and helps us a.lot."
M'cGavin said that the staff
at Brussels P.S. also helped
a great deal with getting the
group up and running.
Youths interested in join-
ing, or anyone interested in
purchasing t -shirts, or partici-
pating in any of Kids Care's
other programs, can contact
McGavin at jacobm_4@hot-
mail.com. Information about
Kielburger and Free the Chil-
dren is available at www.
