2010 Summer of Service Begins!

Hey everyone!

YVC is excited to annouce our first annual Summer of Service program! We've got a fantastic group of 25 kids ready to learn and serve in Dallas County all summer long! There will be 16 projects total--3 groups doing 4 projects each for 4 weeks of service-learning relating to environmentalism and disaster preparedness. We're doing an environmental audit at Jubilee Center, lots of beautification projects, and even creating a comprehensive disaster plan for the Pre-GED School's facility.

Today, however, we'll take a step back and have some fun with a training academy at the Dallas Public Library's central branch that covers the goals of our program, how to be successful, and lots of games and team builders so our students can get to know each other and have a successful summer together!

Keep checking the blog, the YVC facebook and twitter pages, and of course, the VCNT website (www.vcnt.org) for more information about Summer of Service and how to get involved!

In Service,

The Youth Volunteer Corps
