Safe Playground for United Faith Nursery and Basic School - Jamaica

United Faith Nursery & Basic School caters for 50 children 6 months old to 6 years old. It is situated in the inner city of Olympic Gardens, Kingston, Jamaica where 80% of our parents are unemployed. The playground currently has only 3 car tires that the children play around with and we aim to build slides, swings & climbers. We want it to be child-friendly and very relaxing for them. It is required that the children play 90 minutes per day but not having a safe playground makes it impossible.

PROGRAM 4
Junior Development Program - Innovation Learning Space - Ghana

An Innovation Learning Space equipped with IT tools and creative spaces to assist children from undeveloped and disadvantaged backgrounds in Ghana with the knowledge of the Sustainable Development Goals, relevant digital skills, creative skills development, and leadership training in order to better equip them to meet the global competition and to break the cycle of poverty.

How I Benefited from TLBBH Foundation & BLP #LearnTeachSDGs Class

My name is Elizabeth A. Camara, A 21-years-old, from Gambia West Africa. I am An American Corner Intern and I advocate for Climate Change, Peace and Humanity.

I am passionate about Change.

6 months ago I join an online Study class on Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Which was organized by The Lady B Bless Humanitarian Foundation in partnership with Bright Light Projects. This #LearnTeachSDGs initiative's mission was to reach out to many people as possible and educate them on the benefits of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and The Importance of implementing and supporting these goals. The classes were focused on teaching people from around the world about the Sustainable Development Goals. Why and when they were established, how they can be achieved before 2030, Who established them and how the future of the Human race depends on these Goals.

That was my First time learning about The 17 Sustainable Development Goals and how they tally with my advocacy and my passion for change. The classes when on for a whole month then we were given a quiz which I passed and received a certificate and Now I am an SDG Ambassador at Lady B Bless Humanitarian Foundation.

More to the Above, After learning about The SDG and becoming An SDG Ambassador. I decided to start implementing and sharing everything I have learned.

I organized a Two(2)days Workshop teaching and raising awareness on the SDGs. I collaborated UNDP Banjul, expects on the areas of SDG goals, Rise & Shine Media, American Corner Interns & Volunteers, and The American Embassy Banjul funded the event, on rising awareness on SDG in the Gambia with 40 participants, They were all given Certificate for participating and We are about to start our Action plans. We realized that all the goals were interrelated so we put them into 3 main components which are; Social Development, Economic Development, and Environmental Development.

In honor of the 100th anniversary of the passing of the 19th Amendment, which guaranteed women's right to vote in the U.S., Newsweek is looking at other impressive female advancements around the world over the last century.

From the first woman to rocket into space to the activists who gathered for a record-breaking Women's March, solo or in groups, women have set records and forged paths forward against all odds.

Her crusade for pay equality gained the largest-ever worldwide audience for a tennis match—over 90 million—when she defeated "self-proclaimed chauvinist" Bobby Riggs in the "Battle of the Sexes" at the Houston Astrodome

2. Mother of Civil Rights Alabama (1955)

Rosa Parks' refusal to give up her seat and go to the back of a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama, ignited one of the largest social resistance movements in history. The Montgomery Bus Boycott was the igniting event that set off the U.S. civil rights movement.
