WE-BE MAGAZINE Fall 2013 | Page 51

Why, What & Who WE-BE Magazine Hello, we are sisters and two dedicated youths who believe in living with our eyes wide open. We care about the condition of our world, especially the challenges that youth face today. We believe young adults have the power to bring about real change in their communities and in the world, and that there are those who are doing it right now, successfully and powerfully. We believe that if one sees a humanitarian need or a need to take action, stepping up to meet that challenge or to make our voices heard is a moral responsibility. We the Youth have a powerful voice that needs and yearns to be heard. Statistics show that the youth determine, for the most part, what the media will promote in the fun, fashion, make-up, food and health industries; to what is aired on TV or produced for the big screen by the entertainment industry; to what will be made and sold in most marketplaces all around the world. If we, the Youth, have this kind of influence on how our world thrives, then we also have the power to create meaningful and significant change in our world. Knowing this, we decided to create and publish an online magazine through our newly formed business called WE-BE. In every issue we publish we’ll reach out to the hearts of young people, around the world, about such topics as style, health, issues youth face, overcoming challenges, and we will be sharing stories that will bring young people hope and inspiration. Our magazine generates funds to support 3 very important charities/causes we are passionate about supporting which needs our help. As we continue to sign sponsors and fundraise, we will bring to our project more financial support as well as project partnering to help us make our goals a reality. This is where you, our public come in...Every time someone clicks the LIKE BUTTON on our Facebook fan page or fills in the subscription form on the Home page of our website, our sponsors will match your clicks with dollars. Please share our magazine with others; it spreads hope throughout the world. WE-BE Magazine issues are released seasonally (4 a year). We will be featuring fabulous topics, fashion styles, fun ideas and inspirational stories about how the youth of our world have purpose and the ability to step up, step out and help to make healthy change happen in them and in our world. Our mission is to stand up, step out and take a stand to live as inspirational, responsible, Accountable youth who take ACTION in our world to create healthy change with and for the youthful hearts’ of humanity in our community locally, globally and for the next generations of young people to come. We do hope you will enjoy WE-BE’s online magazine.
