Global Youth Service Day 2012


This weekend we celebrated Global Youth Service Day! All of our high school students must complete 40 hours of Community Service as members of College Forward. We plan several events for our students throughout the year. Check out our coaches and students working hard for Global Youth Service Day!

What is GYSD??

Global Youth Service Day is an annual campaign that celebrates and mobilizes the millions of children and youth who improve their communities each day of the year through service and service-learning. Established in 1988, Global Youth Service Day is the largest and longest-running service event in the world, and the only day of service dedicated to children and youth. GYSD is celebrated each year in over 100 countries.

Each year, millions of children and youth around the world work together with schools, youth organizations, nonprofits, community and faith-based organizations, volunteer and national service programs, government agencies, faith communities, and other individuals to address the world’s most critical issues and change their communities on Global Youth Service Day.
