First pilot of the Ambassadors Leadership Program begins!<br />

Coming together to foster leadership skills and empower equestrian youth as global<br />

citizens, <strong>Just</strong><strong>World</strong> international, in partnership with Private Tutoring Services, began its<br />

first pilot project of the Ambassador Leadership Program.<br />

In tune with <strong>Just</strong><strong>World</strong>’s vision of involving their ambassadors in meaningful social change<br />

and providing them a space for personal growth, Private Tutoring Services support will<br />

supply a practical structure and mentorship, enhancing their life learning skills, while<br />

creating opportunities for less fortunate children, their education and well-being.<br />

“The opportunity for our students to participate in leadership training while they are<br />

competing and traveling is a great compliment to their academic programs,” said Joanne<br />

Weiner, Executive Director of Private Tutoring Services. “Experiencing first-hand the<br />

impact of their fundraising and organizational efforts will be a life-changing experience.”<br />

This group, formed by young <strong>Just</strong><strong>World</strong> Ambassadors and current PTS students, comes from various disciplines in<br />

the equestrian sport such as show jumping and dressage. These youth will put their leadership skills to test, working<br />

together and fundraising to help support <strong>Just</strong><strong>World</strong>’s newest initiative in Brazil. The participants will have the unique<br />

experience of traveling to Brazil this summer to witness the effect of their hard work.<br />

“I am very excited about our partnership with Private Tutoring Services,” expressed Jessica Newman. “<strong>Just</strong><strong>World</strong> has<br />

grown to a point where it is time to develop a more structured leadership program for our Ambassadors, to give them<br />

the skills to reach their potential, and have a substantial impact on our projects.”<br />

Fun in France!<br />

<strong>Just</strong><strong>World</strong> is extremely excited to be partnering with the international horse show, Jumping Chantilly 2012 and the 2012<br />

European Pony Championships in Fontainebleau from July 17-22.<br />
