At-Large Councilmember Kwame R. Brown took time this month to attend the One World Education (OWEd) celebration, honoring the class of 2010 Student Ambassadors. The OWEd celebration and fundraiser was held at the Josephine Butler Park Center in Ward 1.
One World Education is a non-profit dedicated to improving learning and literacy. The mission of One World Education is to promote global awareness, literacy, and meaningful citizenship with educational resources that give voice to youth perspectives on culture and global issues.
The 2010 student ambassadors competed in the 2010 Culture and Global Issues Reflection Contest and were judged to be the best among 325 middle and school student participants. In addition to honoring the 12 student ambassadors, Councilmember Brown donated several items to the organization’s silent auction, including tickets to an upcoming Nationals’ baseball game and a very special “Waffles with Kwame” breakfast at IHOP.
