As teachers, we’re tasked with molding students into intelligent, productive citizens. That includes more than just homework. Volunteering is a wonderful trait to instill in students, and at the very least, looks great on a college application, too. You can help your students get involved in their community by directing them to Serve.gov.
At Serve.gov, students can find hundreds of volunteer service opportunities within a few miles of home. They can search by their service interest area, enter their zip code, and they’ll get a Google-Maps-Enabled list of results with details, dates, and driving directions.
