Global Kid Connect

An exchange between youth in Colorado and youth in Pakistan

We are proud to have the support of Roaring Fork Leadership for a second year! This project facilitates a dialogue of cultural exchange between the youth of Pakistan and the youth of the Roaring Fork Valley.  Last year, the project (formerly named Cyber Peace Project) was launched by a great team of volunteers in the US with two classrooms in Colorado and two classrooms in Pakistan. The children had so much fun using a blog to share photos, ask one another questions, posting and viewing pictures and drawings they made for each other. Curriculum segments include themes about family, school, leadership, peace, culture, and geography. Teachers in both the US and in Pakistan shared that this was an activity that they looked forward to all week. We are excited to have a new team of committed individuals dedicated to growing this great program and we hope to have even more families and communities involved! If you or anyone you know is interested in initiating an exchange or implementing curriculum that helps students in the U.S. learn about Pakistan please contact us at info@marshalldirectfund.org.  See  video about the program.
