Gandhi once said “We must be the change we wish to see in the world.”
Challenge Day encourages people who participate to challenge themselves and others to make a positive change in their lives and our world.
During Challenge Day, the youth who join in the action are encouraged to celebrate diversity and expression, and learn how to create a world where everyone gets to feel safe and accepted. That also means getting to know the other youth that are participating, and learning things like how to break down barriers between cliques, and get rid of bullying, and accepting people for who they are.
The coolest part is that Challenge Day happens at schools all over North America, and if you’re interested in having this event at your school, I encourage you to check the website for more info (they’ve got a bunch of videos up to show you what Challenge Day is really like), and talk to your teacher about it.Â
 So how ’bout it? Are you up for challenging yourself and your peers to change the world?
Were you able to participate in one? I've been involved as a Teen Leader with 6 Challenge Days over the past 3 years. It is such an amazing experience!
Ive only participated in 3 in the last 5 years, and i was a teen leader for 2 of them, i love it,it really is amazing,
its so sad i cant be a teen leader again, but i really want to go again as an adult,
