Relief International



Youth Connect Worldwide (YCW) is the international discussion and debate forum of Relief International - Schools Online’s Global Citizenship & Youth Philanthropy Program, connecting students in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Palestine, Tajikistan and the United States in virtual online communities.
The Program has been made possible with major funding from the United States State Department Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, and the Global Catalyst Foundation. Currently more than 70 schools around the world participate in the program.
If you are currently participating in our program, please log in using the form at the left of this page. If you would like to participate, please contact us.
We've had a lot of fun working with Relief International. We made web cam videos of all our students introducing themselves in Arabic. Palestinian students from Hebron have responded. It's been really exciting for us to learn Arabic with students across the world.

America Loves Iraqis | Bringing true change to Iraq



This is our new project. We wanted to make learning to read and write a real experience for us. We are writing to the students and sending them supplies to help build bonds of friendship in a war torn country.
