Bhutan Sharing & Loving Youths: February 2018

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."

-Margaret Mead

It was a great privilege for Bhutan Sharing & Loving Youth to lead and organize a Mass Cleaning Awareness Campaign along Memorial Chorten to Changidaphu (Kalabazar) area in Thimphu. This was a first activity initiated after we joined Young Bhutan Network created by Department of Youth and Sports under Ministry of Education. It is a start of a collaborative work among DYS, Y-VIA, Harmony Youth Volunteers, Daisan and Clean Bhutan. We look forward to build strong network in future
