Approximately 300,000 children are forced to become soldiers in areas of conflict around the world. After such a devastating experience, these children need rehabilitation. The L.V. Rogers Leadership Team hosted a day of silence on December 7. Students from Toronto to New Mexico took part in the event. Participating students worked together to collect pledges for the Free the Children’s Child Soldier Rehabilitation Program. Vow of Silence students did not communicate in any way for 24 hours, to show support for children throughout the world who have no voice.
