News From UNICEF Campus Initiative

If you have already signed up as volunteer for the Campus Initiative on the UNICEF home page you should have received a special email from Rachael Swanson talking about the Idea List Conference in Chicago.

(From an Email) Campus leaders, Jeff Loftsgaarden and George Petruck from Loras College in Dubuque Iowa, and Bethany Carriger from Southern Illinois University met with UNICEF staff at the Idealist.org Campus Conference, March 23-25th in Chicago, IL.

The conference was packed with relevant and inspiring content for student leaders. Highlights included hearing from Ami Dar, Founder of Idealist.org, participating in groups with students from all over the country to discuss social change, workshops, performance art, and closing thoughts from student activists.
