fai-fah for Youths fai-fahLearningCenters: Rather thangivingaway freefish, thegoal of all fai-fah learningcenters is to teach youth to fish by encouraging community children aged 12-17 to spend their free time learning art and life skills at no cost. The program’s goal is to inspire youths to use their newfound knowledge to better themselves and their families and create positive change in society. This year, all fai-fah learning centers have launched 3C strategies to inspire youths to work together to overcome the COVID-19 challenge. The 3C consists of the following: 1. Connect: Ensure continued learning by adapting classes (such as art, singing, dance, guitar, and music band) to be entirely online during the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing fai-fah youths to continue studying during the temporary closure of fai-fah learning centers. Additionally, the learning centers offer a variety of activities designed to inspire children and teach financial literacy using an online platform, which keeps fai-fah youths involved in sharing experiences and participating in activities together during COVID-19 pandemic. 2. Care: Provide care to community youths through do-it-yourself activities delivered to their homes via the fai-fah “Happy Box”, which is stocked with equipment for activities that help build art skills and inspire creativity while staying at home, as well as the “Caring Box”, which is filled up with basic medical supplies for children such as face masks and alcohol to keep them safe and “Lunch Box” to support fai-fah youth & families during crisis situation. 3. Contribute: Spread positive vibes through fai-fah Art Fest 2021 in a virtual format to inspire youths to apply what they learn at fai-fah learning centers to sustainably enhance communities and society. By doing this, fai-fah youths will learn how to collaborate online and brainstorm ideas for creative presentations and give back to society in a variety of ways, including designing and producing products for sale using skills learned at the centers, or performing their artistic abilities such as singing, dancing, or sports in the form of video clips to the public online space and generating revenue to support several charities from such creative efforts.
