Group Service Opportunities
Supercharge an existing event dedicated to service
We partner with schools, parent-teacher associations, and youth-serving organisations toorganise meaningful community service opportunities for youth ages 5-14
Facilitate youth organisations, clubs or schools to offer community service at a regular cadence
Our aim is to make participation in service accessible by providing educators and youth program staff with the tools, resources, and support needed to mobilise their students- at no cost!
Add youth service to an existing event
Existing family-friendly events offer the chance to harness the collective power of those who will already be in attendance to make a lasting difference for the community.
