Right now, the spirit of volunteerism and service to one’s community and country is a longstanding American tradition and one of the most admirable examples of working to strengthen the lives of others, and encourages the ideals of social consciousness and contributing to the betterment of our whole society.
Our goal is to highlight the fact that individual commitment to community based service programs has been an effective means of engaging Americans of all ages and backgrounds to serve their community needs and to promote the ethic of volunteering. We believe that these highly motivated champions of the community embody the spirit of hope that improves communities.
