Gift Of You

The Gift of You is a 'how-to', step by step manuscript on setting up a youth program. The author gives the illustration of how a cooking program was used as a template to share her passion with a young audience. Using this as a model she provides detailed instruction on each stage of developing a youth program. The book offers key insight on selecting a target audience, choosing a location, advertising, and obtaining funding (to name a few). The main goal of The Gift of You is to help stir up the innate gift within each individual and use it as a guiding force to help direct and develop the next generation of individuals in our communities. The last chapter of the book gives convincing insight as to what gives us the authority to impact future generations of human beings, and likens each individual to ultimate beings designed by an ultimate creator, designed for a specific purpose.The Gift of You serves as an ideal resource for educators, youth workers, youth leaders, parents, grandparents, and anyone interesting in helping to mold the lives of young people. It is meant to inspire and to invoke a sense of service and lineage to subsequent generations.
