Olinga Learning
Olinga Learning provides educational programs and materials
to equip young people to engage in social action as they
grow. Junior
youth are assisted by youth mentors to facilitate a dynamic
process of learning based on the discovery of expression and
inner perception. This approach helps young people
understand the moral implications of their speech and
actions, and inspires a positive spirit. Meridian is the
fiscal sponsor of Olinga Learning.

Healthy Ways Green Days
How can kid's help the environment? Kids don't buy cars, gas
or solar panels, but by reducing the amount of meat and
dairy in our diets, we can help the environment and our
health at the same time. Healthy Ways Green Days is a
community outreach campaign sponsored by the Meridian
Foundation and inspired by the United Nations Environment
Programme’s World Environment Day. Project organizers were
appointed Youth Delegates to the United Nations' Children’s
World Summit in Japan.
