Overview

Youth Voices United for Change!

It’s never too early to begin cultivating future leaders from today’s youth.

40 Story’s integrates visual art and storytelling to help youth explore their core leadership skills. Inspired by the 40 Developmental Assets created by the Search Institute, 40 Story’s helps people strive to become healthier and more caring citizens. This project has brought together over 50 kids and teens to establish a thought provoking book on youth leadership through storytelling.

Participating youth have united to uniquely express these 40 Developmental Assets in their own way, portraying how youth view empowerment, personal power, positive values, and other building blocks of healthy development.

In 40 Story’s, the assets necessary to inspire and encourage the leaders of tomorrow are interwoven in an enjoyable and original way.

“What great lessons for young people...and elders as well. This amazing book written by young adults contains words for ALL of us to live by and stories that bring to life these lessons. An absolutely delightful read that should be shared with family and community."
~Marty Evans, Former Pres., Amer. Red Cross/ Pres., LPGA/Exec. Dir., Girl Scouts USA/Sup’t US Naval Postgrad. School

The royalties from this book will be donated to help fight hunger and support youth programs around the world.

About the Author

Creative Children For Charity (3C) is a program that supports non profit mission by bringing kids and youth together through art and leadership programs in the community. The mission? To inspire one million kids and teens to donate their time and talent for a social cause. The group strives to unify the community by bringing art together with charity and help those in need. 3C believe in the abilities of today's youths, and want to empower them to donate their time and creativity to a good cause. Fundraising events are regularly done, from which all of the profits go to various charities. One of 3C's main goals is to try to promote the young artists of today, and the creativity which is such a fundamental part of leadership.






3C started with one person, Chirag Vedullapalli, who painted and sold paintings since he was young with support from his family, friends, and the community. At nine, he realized that the talents of others could also be used to help those in need, and 3C was founded.






The group started small, with only three kids showing incredible initiative by organizing events to fulfill the mission, and slowly began to grow.






Along with the events, 3C has also run workshops that generally run for a few hours and focus on a theme. During the workshops, kids are given instructions on creating their masterpieces.






Currently, 3C has raised and donated over $10,000 in last 3 years for the various organizations it's worked with, and over 700 hundred kids participate in our events. The latest project 3C is working on is called 40 Story's, and focuses on strengthening leadership qualities in the youth involved.
