Chain of Change: Making a Difference Together
Chain of Change (CoC) is a student-driven initiative at The English School Nicosia that focuses on raising awareness, funds, and practical support for important causes. CoC members are dedicated to building a fairer, more sustainable society through teamwork and volunteering.
As an independent committee, CoC oversees all charity efforts and activities within the school community. Its mission is to support various foundations and charities while fostering a sense of unity among students in the fight against poverty.
Our Purpose
In a world where those in need are often overlooked, Chain of Change challenges students to take meaningful action, no matter how small. By recognizing the issues around us, empowering others to act, and creating opportunities to make a difference, we aim to build a chain of hope and solidarity.
- Acknowledgement sparks awareness.
- Awareness invites unity.
- Unity drives change.
Together, we can extend this chain and offer a helping hand to those who need it most.
