Although Aspiro has operated a Young Adult program since its inception, the time has come to give it an identity all its own. We are pleased to introduce you to our new name, discovered by one of our incredibly bright young adult students.
Kairos is an ancient Greek word with an appropriate meaning: “the right or opportune moment.”
The ancient Greeks had two words for time, chronos and kairos. While the former refers to chronological or sequential time, the latter signifies a time in between, a moment of undetermined period of time in which something special happens. What the “something special” is depends on who is using the word. The word Kairos, is pronounced like the city Cairo, then adding an “s.” It is a unique name, one that we have considered for some time. Like Aspiro, it may be a bit difficult to remember at first, but it is one that should never be confused with anyone else!
We hope you like the name itself, as well as the unique logo. We have launched the Kairos website where you can get lots of great information, awesome photos, online application and so forth. Please check it out when you have the time at: www.kairosadventure.com
