Theme: Living Beyond Limits

The event is targeted for "At-Risk" children from Ghoghanj NGO, ages 11-16, from hard-working single parent households or from socially dysfunctional families. The theme "Living Beyond Limits" was inspired by the recent TED talk of the same name by Amy Purdy. The videos will focus on the importance of dreaming big, living life to the fullest and exploring the world of endless possibilities. In short, it is to inspire the kids to follow their hearts and never give up their wildest dreams.
