Dear Friends,
My name is Bill Kupec. I am a retired high school principal, in New York, USA. I also have served for a number of years as an intercultural leader in my community. I have been associated for many years with young people in my community and as a member of numerous associations. I have travelled to many countries around the world.
I am now in the process of developing an intercultural progran YUPFUN (Youth United for Peace, Friendship, and Understanding among all Nations), that will involve newly formed youth groups in 34 countries. Groups representing their home countries will be paired, as partners, with youth groups in foreign countries. The goal of our newly formed organization is to have YOUTH REALISTICALLY INVOLVED in deliberations and decision-making at local, national, and international level meetings. Partner groups will exchange information gained from these meetings creating an awareness and an understanding of the life style of people of aother culture. In the process they will receive invaluable experience as future leaders.
I am now seeking National Group Leaders to assist me with the planning. If this short version of the program seems interesting to you, please send me your name, country, age, and current involvement (school, work, etc.) and I will send you program details. My E-mai I am confident that with your assistance as leaders (if you are willing!) that we will, together, create an environmwnt for young people to be recognized for their citizen talents
and for their right "to be heard"! Please join me in making this possible.
Bill Kupec (AmbassadorBill)
