I am staying siLENT with Million Minutes this Lent to raise money for young people who will be some of the worst-affected by the impact of Covid-19. I will not speak/use my phone/social media or email for 24 hours! Please sponsor me. Your sponsorship will help young people like Shanea who has committed her life to supporting young people in her local community of Newham, where unemployment, poverty, and unfair treatment are plaguing the young, especially young people of colour. Despite facing setbacks in reaching out to young people during the pandemic, siLENT is supporting Shanea to adapt and meet young people where they are at, building an online community to continue her peer-to-peer accompaniment and empowering young people to use their voice and research issues impacting their community to start finding solutions.

5. You are all set to share your link and raise sponsorship. And you can download the sponsor form below.
