Georgia College and State University students had their break this past week. About halfway through the week, after realizing my daughter wasn’t having a Spring Break to remember, I asked her, “Does your school arrange or sponsor any Spring Break events?”
She initially shook her head no then admitted, “Actually I don’t know.” For parents reading this you know that I got that look on my face that says, ‘Ooooh okey dokey then.’ And I left it at that deciding to do a little research on my own. Here’s what I found out they had information on right on her campus:

VIDEO: Obama Calls For Renewed Spirit Of National Service
Last year, I was dedicated to watching the presidential debates, avoiding the news and making an informed decision for myself. In the middle of it all I was pleased with the ‘time out’ both candidates took to turn the country’s focus to community service. I’m no longer interested in sitting on someone’s board and want to do something much more fun and interactive. Any suggestions?
How is your school contributing to a Nation of Service?

In support of Dave Kelly’s Building Leaders Through Service Network I submit this September 2008 video that highlights and links to a campaign to inspire a new era of voluntary citizen service in America – ServiceNation.org. I invite you to join an effort – any effort – to expand national and community service. Like the song says, “I get by with a little help from my friends.” We’d like to hear about your efforts to build a nation of service, reach out a helping hand, be a good neighbor or perform other random acts of kindness on your campus or in your community. PEACE.
