American Buddhist Study Center, Inc.

<p><strong>History of the American Buddhist Study Center</strong></p>

<p>American Buddhist Study Center was originally founded in 1951 by the late Reverend Hozen Seki. At that time the Study Center’s name was The American Buddhist Academy. Back then Reverend Seki’s wanted to enlighten the spirit and the minds of Americans to the great compassion, wisdom, and teachings of Amida Buddha. </p>

<p>The American Buddhist Study Center is committed to providing Americans with greater knowledge and understanding into the teachings of the Buddha, and the teachings of Shin Buddhism – the most common form of Buddhism practiced in Japan. For over the past 67 years we have invited well known Buddhist scholars, authors, monks, and ministers to speak at our Study Center events. Most noteworthy was D.T. Suzuki, the man who introduced Zen to America. </p>

<p>The Study Center also is a Buddhist book publishing house.  Our most recent publication is Lady Takeko Kujo’s book “<em>Leaves of My Heart"</em>. Lady Kujo was a renowned poet, writer, artist, activist, and humanitarian.  She was one of Japan’s leading women during the 20^th century. “<em>Leaves of My Heart</em>,” is a collection of profound essays reinforcing Buddhist values introducing to the world a voice which, until now, has been largely unknown outside of Shin Buddhist circles. </p>

<p>Today, the ABSC is an active organization holding Buddhist discussions, lectures, workshops, and symposiums.  Our mission continues in the founder’s footsteps introducing Buddhist values and Japanese Culture to America.</p>

<p>The Study Center is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation</p>

The American Buddhist Study Center was originally established in 1951. Our mission is to introduce Buddhist Values and Japanese culture to America

<p>Community-Word Project was officially founded in 1997 with the help of an Echoing Green Fellowship. Twenty-one years later, CWP has inspired over 20,000 New York City kids to be agents of change for themselves and their communities and trained more than 750 teaching artists through the Teaching Artist Project.</p>

<p>Community-Word Project will reach over 3,000 kids in Title I schools and libraries with critical art instruction in academic year 2018-2019. We measure the impact and the outcomes of our teaching with both quantitative and qualitative assessments of student attitudes, behavior, and academic writing samples. We are determined to continually optimize our programs.</p>

<p><strong><em>"I learned how to write well, how to use juicy words, and how to make my story better. I learned that a good writer goes over their story again and again until they make it better." - 3rd Grader, P.S. 132, Washington Heights</em></strong></p>

<p>Our art programs achieve statistically significant gains in 5 student outcomes - Community, Emotional Intelligence, Literacy, Critical Thinking, and Creative Thinking. Measures of literacy, emotional intelligence, and cultural awareness were consistent and reliable across multiple indicators.</p>

<p>Community-Word Project welcomes corporate teams and individuals to volunteer their time and expertise to help fulfill our mission of inspiring kids through arts education. </p>

</ul>

Community-Word Project is a New York City based 501(c)(3) arts-in-education organization that inspires children in underserved communities to read, interpret and respond to their world and to become active citizens through collaborative arts residencies and teacher training programs.

Flex Dance Program Inc

<p>The Flex Dance Program is in its 5th year of operation, and currently consists of two formats:</p>

<p>“FlexIN”, which is the on-site program provided in secure detention centers, foster care and other facilities in New York, and “FlexOUT”, which provides free dance workshops for high school students in various neighborhoods. FlexOUT includes performances transforming public places through the arts.</p>

<p><br />
FDP provides free dance and mentoring sessions for youth including opportunities to perform at events. FDP currently consist of two formats: FlexIN is work we do inside institutions (detention centers, foster care etc.), and FlexOUT is the work we do in the community. FlexOUT incorporates performances and stunts aiming to transform public space through the arts. </p>

<p>The Flex Program employs renowned dancers from local communities to develop dance routines with their students, promoting self-esteem, cooperation, and communication. The Flex Program seeks to transform physical energy into positive, non-verbal self-expression that offers an alternative to conflict. As credible messengers, artists use dance as a conduit to teach and learn life lessons. Flex dance - as conceptual free-form movement , is uniquely suited to harness the value of play and storytelling in forming minds. With an average 500,000 youth detained yearly, our program offers a modest but significant intervention in the cycle of youth incarceration.</p>

<p> </p>

The Flex Dance Program Inc (FDP) is an arts education initiative that fosters positive growth among young people in difficult circumstances through creative mentorship and Flex dance.

Girl Scouts of Greater New York (GSGNY)

<p>Troop 6000^TM is a Girl Scout program specially designed to serve girls in the New York City Shelter System. Weekly meetings are led by trained troop leaders – women also living in the shelter system, alongside with women living in the surrounding community. </p>

<p>At Girl Scouts of Greater New York, we are motivated by a powerful mission to build girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place.</p>

<p>However, for girls living in the New York City Shelter System, Girl Scouting has the potential to provide much more:</p>

<ul>
<li><strong>Girl Scouting means consistency</strong> – a weekly meeting where girls know they'll learn, try new things, and have fun.</li>
<li><strong>Girl Scouting means community </strong>– a network of girls and supportive adults who, even if they’ve never met before, are part of the same club.</li>
</ul>

<p>Troop leaders serve as teachers and mentors to the girls in their troop. Troop leaders are responsible for planning activities, managing resources and time during meetings, and answering girls' questions while fostering curiosity.</p>

<p>Every girl in the five boroughs of New York City deserves a chance to reach her full potential; to have her eyes opened to possibilities for college and careers; to make loving and supportive friends; to learn from caring female mentors; and to chart her own course to achieve her goals. We invite you to ensure that girls and women in the New York City Shelter System have the opportunity to enjoy all that Girl Scouting has to offer by registering to become a troop leader today! </p>

The Girl Scouts of Greater New York leadership experience encourages girls to discover their special skills and talents, connect with other girls, problem solve, and develop healthy relationships. Join us as we build girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place!
