Hi all

Nisperaw li qed tgawdu s-Sajf kemm tistgħu.

Nixtiequ nħabbrulkom li għadna kif waqqafna is-Support Team il-ġdid. Support Team hu dak it-tim li jieħu ħsieb li jorganiżża attivitajiet għal ĊAMYouths kollha li f'dawn l-aħħar sentejn kienu qed ikunu kważi kull xahar.

It-tim il-ġdid hu magħmul minn:

Simon Pace (Equinox)
Sharon Vassallo (Amistad)
Lisa Camilleri (Crossroads)
Dorianne Galea (Takara)
Shaun Cassar (Lynks)

Nixtiequ nirringrazzjaw ukoll lil ST preċedenti li kien l-ewwel ST ta' ĊAMYouths u kellu jibda kollox mill-bidu. Zgurissmu nistgħu napprezzaw ix-xogħol tal-ġenn li għamlu. Matul dawn it-tliet snin it-tim kien magħmul Audrey Ann Vella, Jonathan Sammut, Andrew Camilleri, Stephanie Morana, Denise Muscat u Simon Pace.

Ringrazzjament ukoll lid-diversi membri fl-Activities Team, li dejjem qed jiżdiedu, li flimkien ma' ST joholqu l-programm t'attivitajiet ta' ĊY.

Għeżież ĊAMYouthers

Nisperaw li tinsabu tajbin.

Aħbarijiet mill-LC

CAMYouths 'n8in' Admin — Mon, 03 May 2010 17:14:26 GMT

Għeżież ĊAMYouths,

Nispera li tinsabu tajbin.

Nixtiequ nibdew l-ewwel email tagħna billi nirringrazzjaw lil LC ta' qabilna għax-xogħol tal-ġenn li għamlu. F'dan ix-xahar u nofs li ilna f'dan l-irwol illum napprezzaw ħafna aktar ix-xogħol li kienu jagħmlu. Nixtiequ wkoll nirringrazzjaw lill-kandidati l-oħra li kienu magħna għall-għażla tal-LC il-ġdid, li kienu importanti fil-proċess ta' dixxerniment.

F'dan ix-xahar u nofs bdejna bil-mod nifhmu x'inhu mistenni minna. Għalissa nixtiequ naqsmu magħkom kif qsamna l-irwoli bejnietna u fejn ha jkun il-focus tagħna bħala membri tal-LC. L-irwol tagħna ha jkun ta' għajnuna fejn hemm bżonn għall-gruppi differenti li jieħdu ħsieb l-aspetti varji fil-ħajja ta' ĊAMYouths.

         Adrian -   Coordinator
         Etienne - Affarijiet esterni u sostenibilità
         Doreen - Finanzi u l-post il-ġdid ta' ĊAMYouths
         Audrey - Attivitajiet ta' ĊAMYouths, kommunikazzjoni u media f'ĊAMYouths
         Karm -     Affarijiet interni

Bi pjaċir nixtiequ nħabbru wkoll li ġejna rikkonuxxuti mill-gvern bħala Voluntary Organisation, VO /0396 (NGO). Għandkom mehmuz iċ-ċertifikat li tawna. Grazzi lil LC ta' qabilna u lil Edmond Zammit Laferla li ħadmu fl-aħħar snin biex ikollna dan ir-rikonoxximent. Grazzi tmur ukoll lill-ewwel LC li fforma l-istatut ta' ĊAMYouths li kien fundamentali biex niġu rrokunxuti bħala Voluntary Organisation.

Nawguraw lil min bħalissa għaddej bl-eżamijiet tal-A level u dalwaqt tal-Università. Awguri lill-oħrajn fl-avventuri tal-ħajja ta' kuljum.

Ħudu ħsieb
Adrian, Karm, Doreen, Audrey, Etienne

La Goulette 2010 (Tuneżija)

Renzo 'Renzo' Kerr-Cumbo — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 07:07:29 GMT

Hbieb,
Dan jidher perjodu ta' ahbarijiet, u nhossu li huwa perjodu b'ahbarijiet pjuttost sbieh immens fil-hajja ta' CAMYouths.

Forsi kif qal Fr. Frankie waqt Fusion, fit-timeline tal-hajja ta' organizzazjoni ftit tkun taf ezattament x'ser ifisser mument partikulari ghall-istess organizzazjoni, pero jinhass li dan il-mument fit-timeline taghna huwa mument sabih immens, fejn qieghed jinghatalna hafna, u ghaldaqstant qeghdin nigu mitlubin naghtu hafna lura.

Madwar tmien snin ilu kien mument storiku fil-hajja ta' CAMYouths meta kienet bdiet l-esperjenza ta' Napli li lkoll nafu fejn waslet. Tliet snin ilu bdiet l-esperjenza SJH li hija esperjenza ohra ghal qalbna, u llum qeghdin inhabbru l-esperjenza ta' volontarjat fit-Tunisia.

Din is-sena ĊAMYouths ghandu l-opportunita li jiehu hsieb din l-esperjenza. Bhala CAMYouths iddecidejna li niehdu din l-opportunita u ghall-ewwel darba nippreparaw grupp ta' voluntiera li lesti jidhlu ghal din l-isfida gdida taghna.

Matul il-ħmistax ta' servizz li jagħtu l-voluntiera, il-basement tal-istess dar jinqaleb fi skola għas-sajf għat-tfal li jgħixu viċin l-istess dar. Tul il-ħin li t-tfal jgħaddu għand is-sorijiet, it-tfal jitgħallmu l-Ingliż, jilgħabu, jagħmlu l-crafts u ssir ftit preparazzjoni għall-festin żgħir li jsir quddiem il-ġenituri tal-istess tfal fl-aħħar ġurnata li huma jattendu. It-Tuneżija huwa post interessanti ħafna fejn il-Maltin għandhom rispett kbir mit-Tuneżini. Il-poplu huwa ġeneruż u moħħu miftuħ fl-istess ħin. It-tfal huma tal-ġenn.

Dawk minnkom li huma nteressati tapplikaw ghal din l-esperjenza, tistghu tmorru f'dan il-link:
http://www.camyouths.com/Projects/LaGoulette2010/tabid/144/Default.aspx

L-applikanti mhux necessarjament ikunu membri tac-CAMYouths. Nisperaw li din tkun esperjenza ta' ghotja liema bhalha minnkom ilkoll li ser tidhlu ghaliha.

Dejjem taghkom,

Brian, Karm, Steve, Kenneth, Renzo

Id-Dar tac-CAMYouths!

Renzo 'Renzo' Kerr-Cumbo — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 05:53:51 GMT

Hbieb, kif hafna minnkom konxji, bhala CAMYouths ilna snin niddiskutu u nesploraw in-necessità li jkollna bini li jkun taghna bhala bazi minn fejn inkunu nistghu niffunzjonaw u fejn inkunu nistaw nakkomodaw il-komunitajiet taghna lkoll. F'xi zmien dan il-process deher impossibli, fi zminijet ohra minsi, però fil-verità dejjem kien hemm xoghol ghaddej minn wara l-kwinti. Nixtiequ navzaw, li kif qalilna Fr Louis Mallia (aka GIGI, il-Provincjal ta' Malta), waqt fusion, l-MSSP qed taccertana li fiz-zminijiet li gejjin ser ikolna cwievet ghal bini li ser ikun il-bazi taghna c-CAMYouths. Bhalissa hemm xi diskussjonijiet finali li qeghdin isiru sabiex dan il-bini jaqa f'idejna. Wara dan l-istadju, li jidher li mhux ser idum biex jintemm, ikun wasal iz-zmien stupend li dan il-bini nahdmu lkoll ghalih biex narmawh kif hu necessarju ghalina. Dan ser ikun mument storiku u memorabli fil-hajja ta' CAMYouths. Anzi x-xewqa taghna hi li jkun iz-zmien fejn il-komunitajiet kollha, bil-mod taghhom jinvolvu ruhom u johorgu b'inizjattivi li jkunu jistghu jghinu fil-process sabiex dan il-bini isir verament il-bazi ta' minn fejn il-qalb ta' CAMYouths tibda thabbat. Inhossu li din hi wahda mill-isbah ahbarijiet li qatt xandarna fiz-zmien li ilna fl-LC. Jalla c-CAMYouths jibqa' jikber u jisbieh u jalla dak li qed jafdaw f'idejna l-MSSP ser inkunu kapaci nuzawh bl-ahjar mod possibli ghall-gid tal-komunitajiet taghna, ghall-gid tal-organizzazjoni taghna (li dalwaqt tkun ufficjalment irregistrata bhala NGO) u ghal bqija tax-xoghol li nwettqu fis-socjetà taghna u f'komunitajiet barra minn xtutna. Taghkom, Brian, Karm, Renzo, Steve, Kenneth

Change-of-ĊAMYouths-name Process

CAMYouths 'n8in' Admin — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 04:33:41 GMT

Dear all,

With reference to the change-of-ĊAMYouths-name process launched during the ĊAMKamp, the following refers.

You may remember that during the Annual General Assembly back in February 2008, it was decided that the name 'ĊAMYouths' should be changed as it is a misnomer and does not reflect the changes and developments that our organisation went through over the past 12 years.

We are therefore launching the following process:

initiating the process for changing the name 'ĊAMYouths' (mid-September 2008)

it is important that the new name reflects ĊAMYouths' vision

submitting suggestions for change of name (end of November 2008)

by the stipulated deadline, every community must submit 2 potential name to the LC, as a result of a process of discernment, with an explanation for each name
following the submission of the potential names, the list of suggested names will be circulated amongst the communities

short-listing of preferred names (mid-January 2009)

by the stipulated deadline, every community must select 2 names from the short-list and submit it to the LC
following the submission of the 2 names by every community, and depending on the outcome of the preferences, the process of final selection will be set and announced by the LC

choice of new name during AGA 2009 ( April 2009)

branding and marketing of new name

We urge the Guides and the community which they accompany, to take this process with utmost responsibility and through a process of sincere discernment, lead the communities to choose a name for our organisation that best reflects its identity as developing in the present but which takes into consideration its future. It is extremely important that we all cooperate and engage in this process that will shape the journey of whom we have become and who we are as an organisation. We all have a chance to participate in this process; so let us all make the best of such great opportunity!

Thank you all, and may God bless us in this important phase.

Regards,

Renzo, Steve, Kenneth, Fr. Karm and Brian

Evaluation of the NAPOLI Project

CAMYouths 'n8in' Admin — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 13:47:45 GMT

Dear all,

We refer to our announcement during the ĊAMKamp.

As LC we believe that it is high time that the Napoli Project is thoroughly evaluated. Kindly note that our intention is not to stop this project or put to a halt, butaAfter having engaged into such project for six consecutive years, we think it is wise to stop and have a look at this six-year-old experience with the aim of being brave enough to improve those areas which need improvement and strengthen what is developed and working well.

For this aim we have set up a team of four ĊAMYouths members whose remit is to devise an auditing system and engage into this process. For better objectivity, the team is made up of a good mix of people who have directly experienced the Napoli project as well as people who were involved in it to some extent or not involved at all. The team is made up of Kevin Grech (Stripes), Anabel Mifsud (Sin Fronteras), Paul Mizzi (Jovenes) and Amanda Muscat (Jovénes). We are more than positive that these four members, each with their own experience, will manage to strike a good balance within the team.

The team will be holding its first meeting very soon, following which they will establish their own terms of reference, and devise the process by which they will be evaluating the experience. We hope that the evaluation is concluded by the end of this year. Kindly note that members and non-members who have participated in one or more of the Napoli projects over the past six years, may be contacted for an interview. We therefore appreciate their full cooperation for the benefit of this project which is dear to many of us.

We take this opportunity to thank Kevin, Anabel, Paul and Amanda for accepting to form part of the said team, and to all thos who would be involved in one way or another, for their valid contribution.

Regards,

Renzo, Steve, Kenneth, Fr. Karm and Brian

Treasurer to CAMYouths

CAMYouths 'n8in' Admin — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 05:02:32 GMT

Dear all,

We hope that this email finds you all well.

We would like to inform you that Jonathan Spiteri (Clusters) resigned from the post of Treasurer to CAMYouths due to personal commitments. We take this opportunity to thank Jonathan for his contribution in this area.

We therefore approached Darren Micallef (Stripes) who accepted to reassume the post in spite of his busy schedule. However, in order to facilitate matters we took Darren's suggestion to appoint two assistants who, under his supervision, would be responsible for the book-keeping/accounting and for all the necessary transactions and reporting required from time to time.

For this purpose we appointed two assistants, namely Corinne Montefort (Equinox) and Marie Claire Falzon (Crossroads), who shall have separate responsibilities unless otherwise necessitated. Marie Claire shall be responsible for the Napoli Projects accounts while Corinne shall be in charge of the CAMYouths accounts. However, the three of them shall work together so that we all operate on the same lines.

While we thank Darren for taking on the role of Treasurer once again, and Marie Claire and Corinne for accepting to assist him in this important role, we wish the three of them all the best as they engage in this valuable contribution towards the running operations of CAMYouths.

SJH 2008

Glenn 'glennzarb' Zarb — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 13:13:09 GMT

Dear ĊAMYouths members,

For the second consecutive year, ĊAMYouths is committing itself to coordinate and organise the St. Joseph Home outreach project (SJH 2008), in which volunteers are invited to participate. The event consists of summer activities for the different units within St. Joseph Home run by the MSSP, which activities will be spread over the weeks of August. Activities will be organized on weekdays (Monday through Friday), during which the boys will be involved in different educational and/or fun activities.

The aim of the project is to assist St. Joseph Home in providing extra activities that enable the boys to enjoy summer time and have daily activities as part of their daily programme. The boys are divided into units, according to age, and each unit shall have individual activities as well as common activities with the rest of the units. Such grouping enables the activities to be tailored according to age as well as provide for more individual attention.

As a project, the SJH experience is fully in line with the core principles of ĊAMYouths, namely community, spirituality and mission. Such experience provides the volunteers with the opportunity to share themselves with others, especially with people in need. However, such service cannot take place outside the context of communion and spirituality. Thus the project is one whereby, through the course of preparation as well as during its realization, the volunteers are given ample opportunities to grow personally, spiritually and as a group.

Volunteers can commit themselves for specific times during the day and specific days during the week throughout the month of August. In other words, they are not requested to stay for the whole of the project. However, the more availability one gives the easier it would be to run the different activities as we would have enough manpower.

If you are interested in being part of the SJH 2008 experience, you can download the SJH 2008 – Formola ta' Applikazzjoni and send the completed form to infosjh@camyouths.com by not later than 30th April 2008. The SJH 2008 is open for ĊAMYouths members only, as long as they are 17 years of age and over. Kindly be informed that all applications shall be reviewed by a team directly responsible for this project, which team shall assess whether the candidates are eligible or not. Candidates with no previous experience of voluntary work or have little or no experience of community life are still eligible for the SJH 2008.

PDT-Naples is set up!

CAMYouths 'n8in' Admin — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 14:25:09 GMT

We have the pleasure to announce that the PDT-Naples has now been set up. It is composed of Kevin Grech (Stripes), Agnes Cachia Picard (Sin Fronteras), Adrian Żahra (Jovénes), Fr. Martin Galea mssp and Fr. Karm Debattista mssp. The PDT-Naples has the remit to accompany the group of volunteers that is committing itself for the Napoli 2008 project and to provide for its formation in the aspect of community, spirituality and missionary/service. We thank Kevin, Agnes, Adrian, Fr. Martin and Fr. Karm for accepting to assume such role and we wish them all the best.

The Leadership Committee is meeting with PDT-Naples on 23rd January 2008, from which date they will begin their mission. We are sure that the richness of their individual experiences and the complementarity of their personal talents augur well.

We have received 42 applications for Napoli 2008; it is a good number and promises well. Applications have been therefore closed on 20th January 2008. However, late applications may still be considered in case any vacancies arise in the future. Should there be any query please contact us on infonapoli(at)camyouths.com.

We thank you all for the interest shown.

Napoli 2008 - Applications are open!

CAMYouths 'n8in' Admin — Sun, 30 Dec 2007 09:03:40 GMT

For the sixth consecutive year, ĊAMYouths is committing itself to coordinate and organise the Napoli 2008 outreach project, in which volunteers are invited to participate. The event consists of a summer camp for children/early teens organised by the Missionaries of Charity in Marianella, in the outskirts of Naples, which camp will be spread over five weeks during the period July to August. It would be running Monday through Friday, 8am to 4pm, during which the children/early teens will be involved in different educational and/or fun activities. Each week would then be concluded with Sunday mass organized for the children/early teens and their families.

The children aged 5 to 13 years are usually divided into four main groups, according to age and gender, and each group shall be led by the youth volunteers. Such grouping enables the activities to be tailored according to age as well as provide for more individual attention. Last year's innovation was that participants aged 13 years and over formed part of a mixed group whose aim was to prepare and train them as future leaders; hence their role in the summer camp was that of Animatori. We hope that the same will happen in Napoli 2008.

The aim of the project is to assist the Missionaries of Charity take the children/early teens off the streets for some time, and provide them with an alternative environment where they can grow, have fun, make friends, and learn new things…an opportunity to live their childhood/early teen years in an ambience of welcome, simplicity and free from abuse.

As a project, the Napoli experience is fully in line with the core principles of ĊAMYouths, namely community, spirituality and mission. Such experience provides the volunteers with the opportunity to share themselves with others, especially with the poor and the needy. However, such service cannot take place outside the context of communion and spirituality. Thus the project is one whereby, through the course of preparation as well as during its realization, the volunteers are given ample opportunities to grow personally, spiritually and as community.

If you are interested in being part of the Napoli 2008 experience, you can download the Napoli 2008 – Formola ta' Applikazzjoni and send the completed form to infonapoli(at)camyouths.com by not later than 15th January 2008. The Napoli 2008 is open for both ĊAMYouths members and non-members, as long as they are 18 years of age and over. Kindly be informed that all applications shall be reviewed by a team directly responsible for this project, which team shall assess whether the candidates are eligible or not.

Gheziez Guides u Membri tac-CAMYouths,

Xtaqna li bhala LC nwasslu l-awguri taghna ghal dawn il-festi, lilkom u lill-familji taghkom. Jalla dan il-Milied ikun wiehed hieni mimli ferh u paci fil-qalb u jalla s-Sena l-Gdida tkun wahda fejn tlaqqaghkom ma’ hafna mumenti sbieh.

Dan iz-zmien huwa wiehed fejn isir hafna skambju ta’ rigali li hafna drabi jkunu affarijiet materjali, u li niehdu gost bihom. Peró tajjeb li nieqfu ftit u napprezzaw r-rigal taghna nfusna, ta’ hajjitna, ta’ persuni li hemm fil-qrib taghna, u hafna aspetti ohra li ftit li xejn napprezzaw imma li jaghtuna hafna sodisfazzjoni. U fost dawn hemm il-fatt li ahna lkoll ahna membri tac-CAMYouths u lkoll qed nghixu xi haga sabiha. Ghal xi whud minna dan il-vjagg ilu li beda u ghal ohrajn ghadu fil-bidu. Peró wasalna fejn wasalna tajjeb li naghrfu kemm ahna tajna lic-CAMYouths u lill-komunitajiet fi hdanu u kemm ircivejna. U dan huwa rigal li tajjeb li niccelebrawh. Ghalhekk awguri lilna lkoll.

Nixtiequ li s-sena li gejja nkomplu mexjin dan il-vjagg flimkien. Zgur li hemm hafna x’qed jistenniena u lest ghalina u tajjeb li nidhlu ghalih b’hafna entuzjazmu. Ahna min-naha taghna nirringrazzjaw lil kull wiehed u wahda minnkom talli intom taghmlu parti minn din l-esperjenza sabiha u talli tinvolvu ruhkom biex ic-CAMYouths ikompli jikber u jissahhah. Jalla t-twelid tal-Mulej jimlina bl-ispirtu ta’ ghotja kull fejn inkunu biex b’hekk inkomplu ninghataw ghal haddiehor u nkunu rigal ghal xulxin u nservu ta’ strument ta’ paci kull fejn inkunu.

The NGDO Platform aims to improve Malta's contribution to international development by promoting the exchange of experience, ideas and information amongst its members, between networks of NGOs in Malta and internationally, with the Maltese Government, and between its members and other Maltese bodies with an interest in international development and humanitarian aid. To support this work, the Platform manages training, advocacy and information services.

The NGDO Platform is an umbrella organisation that embraces Maltese organisations working in the field of poverty. Its main purpose is to develop policies, both at national level and European level, in relation to poverty issues. Organisations such as the Jesuit Refugee Service, Centre for Faith and Justice, Third World Group, Integra Foundation, Kare4Kenya, Grupp Żagħżagħ għal Palermo are amongst the NGDO members.

The aims of the NGDO are very much in line with the CAMYouths principle of Service/Mission, in that we also strive to fulfil our responsibility towards social development and in line with the mssp charism we also embrace the "...fundamental option for the poor and needy.” Hence, our decision to become NGDO members.

NGDO membership entitles us to:

opportunities for training, funding and networking with other member-organisations on a local level;
access other resources, networking, training and funding on a European dimension since the Maltese NGDO platform is part of European network funded mainly by the European Union named Concord (http://www.concordeurope.org/Public/), which in return will make us available for other projects on co-operation with developing countries and also on promoting awareness;

In order to be actively engaged in the platform, we have appointed Etienne Micallef (member of Jovénes community) to represent CAMYouths in the NGDO network. Such representation will enable CAMYouths to have an active voice in any poverty-related forum/issue and act as a link between our organisation and the NGDO. Etienne shall keep our communities posted with what is happening within the NGDO and its activities. Having said that, CAMYouths members who may wish to participate actively are welcome to contact Etienne (etienne.micallef(at)gmail.com) and do so.

Ħbieb,

Nispera li tinsabu kollha tajbin.

Kif ħafna minnkom tafu, matul iċ-Ċamkamp jinxtara ħafna
materjal li ma jintużax kollu.

Għalhekk nixtiequ li niltaqaw darba sabiex ngħoddu l-materjal u
niġbru kollox f’post wieħed.

L-għan huwa li ma nitilfu xejn u nkunu nafu x’materjal għandna
f’idejna, b’hekk meta niġu bżonn darb’ oħra ma nixtru xejn
doppju.

Nħeġġukom tiġu tgħatu daqqa t’id nhar is-Sibt 20 tà
Ottubru fis-1pm.

Min ikun ġej jekk jogħġobkom avżawna ħalli nkunu
nafu ftit kemm ser inkunu.

Nirringrazjawkom bil-quddiem.

Narawkom

Brian, Karm, Renzo, Kenneth, Steve
