Congratulations to our S3 Young Philanthropy Initiative Winners!

Monday 20th December 2021

Last week our virtual final took place for the S3 Youth and Philanthropy Initiative.  Pupils in S3 RMPS classes have been busy choosing a social issue, contacting local charities in the Midlothian area based on this issue, then creating and filming presentations in the hope of securing a £3000 grant for the charity of their choice.  I am delighted to announce that Ellie, Teagan and Shona won £3000 for the Samaritans of Edinburgh and the Lothians!

The Youth and Philanthropy Initiative (YPI) is a powerful active citizenship programme, empowering young people to make a difference in their communities while developing a range of skills.  We are incredibly proud of these young ladies and the difference they have made to a local charity.
