At the age of 14, Harnoor Gill had a vision to improve the literacy skills of underprivileged children locally and globally. He dreamed of creating a project where he could achieve his goal. Gill, now a 10th grader at Christ the King Catholic Secondary School in Georgetown, Ont., told his family about his commitment to helping others and has never looked back. He has taken a leading role to inspire others in Canada and beyond. His family provided support to help him reach others so he could get his message across through his project. Gill is a Canadian Sikh of Indian origin born in Hong Kong. His local ties to Canada are due to the fact that he is the founder of the Peace Welcome Club (PWC) and is also a student leader in his community of Georgetown, Ontario. A 15-year-old teenager, he has been volunteering for almost eleven years and plays basketball in his free time. The PWC founded by Gill in February 2012 aimed to encourage other children, such as young newcomers, to volunteer in the community. This is a one-of-a-kind youth-led group that has created a lot of buzz around the world. The age of these volunteers varies from 4 to 18 years. Among PWC's other projects: Jean Green Drive, Book Drive, Shoreline Clean Up, Go Zero Waste and No Hungry Children have had a major impact on the community locally and internationally. Its main focus is on the topic of young newcomers. “Young people need to focus on volunteering in their free time, on building peace, rather than just focusing on their own lives,” noted .Gill runs the club and plans all the projects himself. Gill “You don't have to ask anyone to do something for you, just step forward and do what you want to change in this world – miracles don't happen overnight... middle of paper... .do your better,” Gill suggested. He explained that "the integral part of our green projects can be celebrated by bringing a positive attitude and inspiring young newcomers to get involved!" “All our projects are managed in one forum and that is our Facebook page,” Gill confirmed. “It's really cool to know that a social media campaign can make a big difference in someone's life with such a simple and clear message,” he added. Booklets and posters were created and distributed to share to spread the word in communities such as India, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Pakistan and Nepal. “Volunteering is the supreme exercise of democracy. You vote in elections once a year, but when you volunteer, you vote every day on the kind of community you want to live in.” – Unknown.Now let's celebrate a book trip around the world on our part.Miigwech/thank you!
