"TWI
for the Children" Camps and Leadership Training in the Balkans
2011
During
July 2011, TWI conducted a very successful program of Camps for Kids and
Leadership Workshops. Camps for
Kids were held in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Sarajevo Orphanage, Roma
Community, Zenica Orphanage Picnic, Disabled Children Picnic and Mostar
Orphanage); Kosovo (Two villages); and, Montenegro (Bijela Orphanage). A
total of 600 children in these schools and orphanages received a day of
fun, games, stories, crafts, and dance along with snacks and drinks.
Each child went home with an individual photo in a frame as well as a
TWI backpack for their school supplies.
Leadership Workshops were held for University age students in
Paracin, Serbia; Sveti Novi, Macedonia; Kosovo; and in Montenegro. A
total of 300 students attended the seven workshops. The workshops were
taught by two American businessmen on the subject of organizational and
personal leadership. The students received lecture as well as working
group activities during the more than four hours of instruction. A
Certificate of Instruction was provided each student. The team traveled
for 18 days to five countries (Bosnia, Serbia, Macedonia, Kosovo and
Montenegro). This was the fourteenth year that TWI for the Children has
conducted camps for children and Training Workshops in the Balkans. Our
thanks go to our coordinators in each of the countries for their help in
arranging all of the locations for the camps and workshops as well
as the many administrative details that must take place for our
team. We also thank our driver and interpreter who took such good care
of our transportation and luggage and helped in every camp
activity.
