Building Resilience in Action!

This summer, ACOMI is empowering children and youth through sports, leadership, and life skills. Through the Building Resilience Project's Youth Empowerment and Sport Program, we have covered registration fees for over 90 children and youth aged 6 to 25, giving them the opportunity to participate in sports of their choice—including swimming, volleyball, basketball, soccer, and chess.

More than just sports, participants are building the confidence, resilience, and leadership skills they need to thrive both on and off the field.

----------------

La résilience en action!

Cet été, ACOMI donne aux enfants et aux jeunes les moyens de s'épanouir grâce au sport, au leadership et au développement des compétences de vie. Dans le cadre du Programme d'autonomisation des jeunes par le sport du Projet Building Resilience, nous avons pris en charge les frais d'inscription de plus de 90 enfants et jeunes âgés de 6 à 25 ans, leur permettant de pratiquer le sport de leur choix, notamment la natation, le volleyball, le basketball, le soccer et les échecs.

Bien plus qu'un simple programme sportif, cette initiative permet aux participants de développer leur confiance en eux, leur résilience et leurs qualités de leadership afin de s'épanouir tant sur le terrain qu'à l'extérieur.
