What is the meaning of Youth Inspire?
Youth Inspire - What comes across your mind when you read those 2 words?
I asked a couple of my friends and one of them gave me a close enough answer.He replied, 'A group of young adults doing something for a cause?' BINGO was what I said in my heart.
The definition of Youth according to dictionary.com is 'the appearance, freshness, vigor, spirit, etc., characteristic of one who is young'.
The definition of Inspire according to the same sourse is 'to give inspiration'.
So there you go. The reason why I chose this name for the organisation is because I wanted YICO to give inspiration to all youths out there! Inspiration to serve the community. Inspiration to help those in need.
It is also easier to talk then getting things done, therefore with YICO I hope to inspire youths from all walks to do charity. In lay man's term, YICO will be the middle man of youths and the underprivileged community. We will be the bridge to connect them together. Only people who cares for one another will be respected by everyone.
A very good example is Bill Gates. He is one of the greatest philanthropist in the world. If you haven't heard of him being one then go google his name. You will be impressed. Many of the rich and powerful people in the world are where they are today because they have a good heart and are always doing charity. That is why I personally always respected those people.
Coming back to topic, I really hope YICO will be able to connect all youths with the less fortunate ones in this world. Even in the definition of youth it mentioned that we youths have the spirit and the freshness. Let us use what we have to help other people.
I leave you with a meaningful quote, “Behold I do not give lectures or a little charity, When I give I give myself”.
