Marist Solidarity …because young people matter
The annual Marist Solidarity campaign is a program organized by MAPS, the International development agency of the Marist Brothers in Australia. It is an Australia wide educational campaign usually conducted during Lent in 50 Australian Marist associated schools. This year the theme is "Marist Solidarity …because young people matter".
Young people of our Marist community in Australia stand in a unique position. Their actions of solidarity with the marginalised young people in Asia and the Pacific is causing a shift in not only the lives of individuals but in communities of hundreds of people. All because of programs providing training and education in schools, study centres, health centres and universities and all because we recognise that young people matter.
