(NAME-MCE) Celebrate Service-Learning with the National Learn & Serve Challenge

[Christina Wessell Batcheler]

Celebrate Service-learning and accept the National Learn & Serve
Challenge on October 6-12, 2008

 

The National Learn & Serve Challenge is the time to shine a spotlight on
service-learning.  During the week of October 6-12 individuals and
programs all across the country will raise awareness of
service-learning.  Activities might include contacting the media,
holding an event that demonstrates or celebrates service-learning, or
issuing a proclamation in support of Learn and Serve America.

 

Through service-learning, young people can BE A SOLUTION to real world
challenges that face our community, nation and the world.  

 

You can BE A SOLUTION too!

 

Help us spread the word about the positive impact service-learning has
on young people and the community.  Visit  the National Learn & Serve
Challenge www.learnandservechallenge.org to learn more about what you
can do during the National Learn & Serve Challenge, and then tell us
