Are you ready to ignite sparks of joy, smiles, high fives, and empower our children and youth to reach their fullest potential? Then, Session Commencement is where we begin❤️ Watch this video to understand why!
Session Commencement at Make A Difference (MAD) refers to kickstarting sessions with all children and youth in the chapter. This process is curated to ensure children are supported & can get the maximum number of sessions in a year. This is achieved by starting at the right time and ensuring that the required resources & tools are set up.
I.The FIRST PHASE includes all continuing volunteers kickstarting sessions in their chapter. This is mostly executed during the pre-season i.e. April-June.
II. The SECOND PHASE marks the commencement of all sessions with both new and continuing volunteers.
