Nominate an Innovation: Champions of Caring
Abstract
SummaryChampions of Caring is rooted in the lessons of the Holocaust and in the passion of founder Barbara Shaiman, daughter of Holocaust survivors, who was determined that such atrocities never occur again. Since 1995, Champions of Caring has provided character education and service-learning opportunities to over 10,000 diverse youth in the Philadelphia area and beyond. The Champions of Caring Recognition Program identifies and recognizes student service leaders in the Philadelphia area. Through the Journey of a Champion program, Champions of Caring staff provide professional development, curricular materials, and technical support to help educators and administrators integrate character education and service-learning in both the classroom and after-school clubs. Finally, the Ambassadors of Caring Leadership Program provides Champions with sustained mentoring in service and leadership development.
