Our mission has been to educate the public about landmines, and to raise funds to remove them in affected countries. To that end, we have shared this proposal with the largest Mini-United Nations gathering of its kind in Florida. In addition, we are working with the University of Montana Human Rights Club on a compact disc drive and the proceeds from the donated CDs will be used to help fund a school renovation project in Nepal. These students and their families have come to the United States because of an undeclared, drug cartel-backed guerilla war that is taking place in Colombia. We consider it our responsibility to help these students stay in our school.
Every child has a right to an education.
We researched child labor. As a solution we plan to lobby to pass legislature which would regulate American based corporations, forcing them to pay a minimum wage and to hire no one younger than 10. Such action would also ensure that these children receive at least an eighth grade education. We intend to raise money for the playground and library by involving our community and schools. In conjunction with high school students in Sarajevo, the project will help to design and install a playground and library.
