                            The Youth Volunteer Corps (YVC) is a national nonprofit network that offers youth ages 11 through 18 the opportunity to improve their community through volunteering. In the 2010-2011 school year, over 930 volunteers from the Youth Volunteer Corps of Greater Kansas City (YVCKC) completed nearly 17,000 community service hours with 77 local nonprofit organizations and agencies. Our youth volunteers come from all of the Greater Kansas City area, including students from public, private, charter, and home schools.

                            Thinking about taking the day off for Presidents' Day? No way! Instead, give back to your community and volunteer with YVCKC! According to President Barack Obama:

                            "In the story of America the greatest chapters are moments of challenge when we see people serving their country and one another. Volunteers who step forward in the hospital corridors and church basements, along levees and fire lines. And the next chapter is yours to help write." 

                            Help celebrate the heritage of our nation's Presidents by pitching in and serving! Sign up for a Presidents' Day project by visiting our Weekend Projects page.
