VOSAP is excited to launch VOSAP Ignite program for highschool students of Grade 9 to 12th to encourage students to learn about disability, network and volunteer and to promote empathy and sensitivity in students towards Persons with disabilities and to nurture virtue of ‘Individual Social Responsibility’.
Building on the success of the collegiate VOSAP Research Internship (VRI) program, we are excited to launch a new internship program specifically for high school students: VOSAP Ignite!
Ignite is designed to encourage students to volunteer and strengthen the VOSAP mission of helping and promoting the empowerment of Specially Abled People. We are looking for motivated and compassionate students who are in 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grade for the 2021-22 school year. Through the program, we want to promote empathy, having an inclusive perspective, and nurture the “Individual Social Responsibility” mindset.
