What is the Power of 3? • The 'Power of 3’ is a simple and powerful way to involve our youth in charity work. It’s perfect for students who want to get involved in helping others. • In this project, a youth volunteer and two friends create a team of three. • The first step to make the team is for one child to take the initiative and act as a role model. Then he or she can inspire friends to get involved in the project. • Each child saves just $5 per month to help a child in need, changing that child’s future forever!
