Great Gold Award Project



Sometimes, it's just a wonderful thing to open my In-Box and see what's in it. Today was one of those days!  

I interviewed Elaine a while ago for her Gold Award Project.  She had a great plan, and she was able to discuss it, tell me how it was going to work, and then how it would be sustained. Yes, she had it all!

So of course, once signed=out of my mind!  Until today.  Elaine sent me a very professional looking booklet that gives kids at her High School AND at The Youth Center places to volunteer, contact information and a brief description of needs.  Wow!  All in one location.  She has printed copies as well as an online presence.  It looks like the info is held at The Youth Center, but kids can get to it from a variety of ways.

Measurable, sustainable and fills a community need.  Plus, she listed Girl Scouts as one of the agencies where kids (and adults) can volunteer.  She still has to do is get the word out about this terrific resource. And she'll be taking a leading role in The Youth Center's February Recognition event where youth volunteers are recognized for their service.

You go, girl!
