By: Charmira Nelson Pilgrim Winning Playwright Alumni Council Member Former Youth Council Member LEAP program 2016 was really a life changing experience. I got to connect with people from all over the world, and they all were wise, mature and diligent just like me. I was able to relate to so many of my peers, and so grateful for connecting and networking with them. The program taught me valuable skills on how to “nail a job,” to how to be successful in my career choice. I have so much information for this program that`s really given me the potential to be a top candidate in whatever career field I decide to focus on in my life. Words really can`t explain all of the energy, motivation and successful people I met through this conference. I was fortunate to participate in the talent show, doing a poem and placed second. I am so happy and blessed that I was recognized as a “10” and an “Eagle” for a week and the rest of my life. Thank you Philly Young Playwrights for offering me this scholarship. This summer turned out to be the best summer of my life. Now watch me fly into GREATNESS! Young artists, entrepreneurs, and activists are coming together in one of the only spaces where young people who care about the political state of our nation to create ACTION plans on how to make social change at the Democratic National Convention. Youth from all over Philadelphia as well as their adult allies will discuss these issues with national/ local figures and legislatures :
