Bobby of Long Island, NY

I am honored to be a youth ambassador for PNN. It is a true privilege to be able to help others. Raising funds with the Walk for Zambia inspired me to do more for this incredible cause. I look forward to the opportunity to travel to Africa next year and to continue support PNN.

Jonny of Long Island, NY

It has been a joy to be a youth ambassador for PNN. I love to play sports. I have been gathering sports clothes to send to the children in Africa. When I go there, I hope to play soccer with the children there. Maybe I can introduce them to lacrosse as well.

Nathaniel of Long Island, NY

I am honored to be a part of Project Nyame Nsa and be able to help build the Village of Joy. Last year, I was so happy to fundraise for the Walk for Zambia to build a school. I know that we can change the lives of children with education. This year, I’m excited to have my friends and classmates join me in a clothing drive and get involved with PNN.

Marielle of Long Island, NY

For the past several years I have been a volunteer with the Special Olymipics Golf Team at Harbor Links in Port Washington and also the Challenger Athletics on Long Island. Both relate to helping children with special needs in my favorite sports of Golf and Tennis. I realize that I have been given many advantages in life and have the support of my family. This has motivated me to help others. I love working with and helping children. Joining Project Nyame will give me the opportunity to help those in need, who are less fortunate, all with a caring heart and mind. I am also a member of the Manhasset Junior Coalition. In my spare time I also tutor twin 9 year olds.

Sophia of Long Island, NY

I am a motivated student who is a doer! I created a club this year at Friends Academy related to Mental Health for my peers and am in the process of working on my Silver Award for the Girl Scouts of America. Since I was about 10, I’ve created businesses from the ground up ranging from sewing my own fashion line and hosting a fundraiser to benefit the Vanderpump Dog Rescue to a soap business “Pink Roses Co,”. I am a cross country runner and will be joining the Friends Academy Variety Golf team in the fall. I am an avid dancer since 2 years old and this year have begun Pointe Ballet. I am also a volunteer with Challenger Athletics on Long Island.

Joining Project Nyame will give me the opportunity to help those in need, who are less fortunate, all with a caring heart and mind.

Dylan of Long Island, NY

I am fortunate to have the opportunity to be a PNN youth ambassador. I want to continue to give back in different ways and helping the children of Africa with basic necessities as well as the chance for a proper education is truly satisfying. I am happy that I have a way to continue volunteering during CoVid by organizing a clothing drive in my community.
