Why Join Kids for Peace?

By being part of Lucy's Kids for Peace, children and families will:​

• become more civic-minded citizens as they gain a greater understanding of needs within their communities and beyond, and help in meeting those needs

• learn team-building, collaboration, and communication skills

• develop life-long awareness of the importance of giving back

• gain leadership and public speaking skills

• experience the fulfillment of serving others

​Members in 6th grade and up are eligible to be part of the Lucy's Kids for Peace Leadership Team which will allow these youth the opportunity to:

• learn leadership and organizational skills and improve or demonstrate leadership skills they already have

• identify needs within their communities and beyond, and develop and implement plans to aid in meeting those needs

• understand the value of seeing projects through to completion

• learn to communicate and collaborate with local partners, community leaders, parents, and peers

• further develop problem-solving and conflict resolution skills

• experience the fulfillment of serving others

• participate in the Peace Pro Scholarship Program in which youth complete self-directed service projects
