NOTES
*= If there are participants offering to lead this project well before the program
**= Unlike in the past, these activities (especially language learning and creative art/ writing) will be more structured. Students interested in leading the creative art/writing project should contact director@kulefoundation.org for guidance and early planning.
***= This is new and intended to give participants a better sense of the city and, also, to see a different way in which some better-funded organizations support the vulnerable members of society.
PS. In the coming months, more details about our activities will be communicated to the program’s enrolled participants.
