"Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless."
Mother Teresa
The WordLoveWorldLove Project connects Canadian children with children in developing countries, who have been impacted by crises. A global classroom exchange of messages of friendship and compassion, provides an opportunity for children to use their creativity and imagination to better understand one another. Through the simplicity of words, expressed in art and video, children discover they can affect change in their own lives and the lives of others.
“That’s where things will really change in the world when children find and understand that they can really make a
difference.”
