As an adult, and mom, I can’t help but to notice the unquestionable character traits about children that I truly admire.
Children are honest and care free.
Their personalities are actually very similar to that of our elders. In other words, you don’t have to guess how they feel if asked (most times you don’t even have to ask, they’ll tell you), because they won’t hesitate to explain or give you their opinion.
But then again, I’m straight forward, I value authenticity and prefer direct communication. This way you avoid anyone having to second guess your intentions.
For my campaign, I captured video footage of children sharing their message of encouragement for the youth of Keep a Child Alive. The only direction I gave was to “What message would you tell a child, your age, to make her/him feel be happy?”
They didn’t prepare, or think twice…they simply answered to what they felt.
Here’s their response…
Throughout filming for my campaign for Keep a Child Alive I’ve noticed that although the messages come from various individuals, they are interconnected with one another.
Victoria speaks on “Flight”
Nyuma speaks on our “Power”
On World AIDS day, Thursday, December 1, 2016 at 11:59PM, my campaign for Keep a Child Alive ends. It is my hope that you will join me in the support for the youth, and give without expectation by making a monetary contribution towards my campaign. http://support.keepachildalive.org/goto/Alyscia
Thank you for your support!
