V.I.B.E & I.M.A.G.I.N.E YOUTH PROGRAMS AT OVERLOOK ELEMENTARY
SHOW THE IMPORTANCE OF GIVING BACK TO SOCIETY

Overlook Elementary School's IMAGINE (I'm A Girl Intelligent, Noble & Educated) Program did a
great job rallying support from all of the students at Overlook for school supplies that were
sent to school children Uganda.

Overlook Elementary School's VIBE (Voices Involved in Promoting Black Excellence) Program
sponsored a book drive to celebrate Martin Luther King's Birthday. The books were donated to
the Library of the Stenton Family Manor Homeless Shelter and the Delaware Valley Reading
Association, which sponsors programs designed to get books into the hands of local children.

OUR DEEPEST FEAR

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
