We are now ready to expand our work to raise awareness about the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) with The World As It Could Be Human Rights Education Project , and invite you to be a sponsor of this exciting work. This project builds on the successes of the two initiatives The World As It Could Be - A Declaration of Human Rights, and The World As It Could Be: Where There's A Will There's A Way, by developing public high school curriculum that integrates the creative arts to inspire both deeper learning about the UDHR and the community engagement to manifest its words.
Now is a particularly important time to celebrate how we as a philanthropic community can support the vital work of grassroots non-profits. As we illustrate with the Rex Community Caravan, $5 or more can add up quickly to make a difference. If 100,000 people each contribute $5, the Rex Foundation can multiply its grant making capacity very quickly.
