Help Us Make the 20th APEX Youth Olympics Our Best Ever! | |
Youth Olympics is APEX's biggest community service event of the year and we invite you to be part of the fun and excitement! Youth Olympics brings together at-risk Asian Pacific Islander youth from high schools around Los Angeles to compete in a day of physically and strategically challenging games that foster team building and youth leadership.
This year's Youth Olympics theme is "Search for Z Cure：Lead. Trust. Survive," where the stakes for successful teamwork and collaboration are taken to a whole new level. We can't host this event without a large group of dedicated volunteers! Be part of this memorable event and help create a lasting positive impact on this year's participants.

Here's a peak at behind-the-scenes preparation for this years' theme "Search for Z Cure" | |
Communicating Effectively in Today’s World：Watch. Learn. Act.
You may be doing great work, but if you cannot instill confidence in your superiors and clients when speaking, you will be left behind. Don’t be left behind--join APEX for a workshop led by effective communication experts, Toastmasters International members, and further your career today!
The workshop will cover the use of gestures, the art of storytelling, quashing anxiety, and presentation etiquette. Attendees can expect to receive instruction, watch demonstrations, and participate in exercises. Leave the workshop with tools to effectively communicate in any situation whether it is a public presentation, informal gathering, or business meeting.
