 about serve!  
Serve! works with youth ages 13-24 in inner-city communities in experiential education that connects youth and the community-and positively impacts both. Youth who come to Serve! often face obstacles - personal, economic, and social - that have made it difficult to achieve success. The program at Serve! is designed to help them overcome their obstacles and achieve success. Serve! offers youth experiential learning programs which range from six-month programs for older youth to afterschool and summer programs for younger age groups. Youth participants with Serve! discover their true potential through developing leadership and teamwork skills. At the heart of all this is active involvement in the community through service.  
  Serve Canada, for me, was a unique learning and growing experience. It provided me with opportunities to grow as an individual, but also empowered me to share my skills with others, and really opened my eyes to what a community is, and the benefits of being involved with one's community. It has left me with unforgettable memories and friends.

 We are looking for a few agency partners for weekly community projects for a team of 10 youth (17 to 24 years old) to meet community needs and to build youth civic engagement and skills development. Does your organization/agency have a project that can run once a week from end of January to May 2010? We are mainly looking for projects for Monday or Wednesday afternoons (or possibly a one-time service project on a Friday morning). |
