Join Us in New York! Students worldwide on our Loukoumi Good Deed Council meet monthly on Zoom across 18 hours of time zones, to share information about their countries and cultures, the good deeds they are working on in their communities and together they collaborate on global good deed projects.
This April, these members of the Good Deed Council will convene in New York for a 6 day Summit to build on their friendships, do good deeds together and discuss more ways they can make a difference in the world.
