WHAT IS COW CLUB?

C-O-W stands for Changing Our World.  The Mission of the COW Project is to be a resource for teens to experience that we make a difference, through our creative self-expression (theatre, dance, music, spoken word, film art, etc.), in making the world a better place for all.  Through service-oriented arts projects created by young people, for young people and about young people, COW Project members practice leadership, teamwork, compassion and contribution.  We address issues that concern us, but are often pushed aside – topics such as bullying, tolerance, school, relationships, family, substance abuse, sex, teasing, depression, suicide, stress, and global issues such as peace, poverty, the environment.  We have a diverse membership, uniting students from all spectrums of socio-economic, academic, and cultural backgrounds. 

In a world where young people are often considered to be ‘trouble’ and are rarely taken seriously until we become employed adult citizens, our society tends to overlook the valuable contribution that we are and can be. In the COW Project, we get our voices heard and experience that we do have the power to change our world!
