I think this is a good reflection on what young people are truly like.. We are not the lazy yobs that people make us out to be, we are caring and helpful people that do want to help, so good for you :)

I have seen this work at first hand and noted how the young people gain in confidence and self-esteem, and also in interpersonal skills. It would be difficult to imagine a more worthwhile use of very limited resources. Of course, if more resources could be acquired many more young people would benefit, as would the communities in which they live.

It is good to see the young people telling their own story, not least that it is alright to cut trees down to improve the environment.
