Involving your class and community

Encourage your students to learn about the global orphan crisis and World Orphan Week.  Get them to write essays, do research, draw pictures, read books, or plan a concert or event that is focused on orphans.  See our downloadable lesson plans, resources, and posters for ideas and information. 

Put up posters or distribute information about World Orphan Week at your school, community centers, places of worship, etc. to get the word out.  Click here for downloadable resources, or contact SOS Children’s Villages Canada.  You can get in touch with us at wowteam@soschildrensvillages.ca, or if it's more urgent, by telephone: 1-800-767-5111.
