Youth Can Make a Difference!
Let us all join together to help our youth (ages 3-30) develop a greater
sense of civic responsibility, and give them the skills and
opportunities to make a positive difference in their society.
For the eighth year, the Association for Volunteer Services is honored that
it
has again been designated by the international organizers of
Global Youth Service Days (GYSD) as
the National Lead Agency for Lebanon.
To make GYSD
Lebanon a great success, we encourage all schools and youth groups to
plan service projects April 18, 19, or 20. In most cases,
these groups will need to plan, organize and implement their own
projects at the local level.
A participation packet available from AVS includes
a poster,
Participation Guide, Pre-Project information Form,
Post-Project Information Form, and a GYSD Calendar. The
Participation Guide includes
Guidelines for
Participation, along with a list of Project
Ideas, and a guide to How to Plan and Implement a Project. We
hope to have at least 10,000 youth in Lebanon engaged in doing
service projects that weekend, to have national media coverage of the
many projects implemented by schools and youth groups, and to have the GYSD projects in Lebanon listed on the
GYSD website for people all over
the world to see.
