News from Around the Challenge

The National Learn & Serve Challenge Kick off is in full swing!

If anyone is participating in the Learn & Serve Challenge to raise awareness of service-learning? Give a shout out! #lschallenge.

Also, please send your news stories, pictures and the like to us.

We started the week with rousing support from the Corporation for National and Community Service. Thanks to CNCS, a supporter of the Challenge since 2007!

Several other state commissions have dedicated pages on their websites to the National Learn & Serve Challenge. Please visit Maryland and Michigan for more ideas. Kudos to these states for their excellent work! (If your state already has something set up, please send a link to us to feature on this blog!)

We also have to give a shout out to a local DC event for the Challenge. George Washington University kicks off the Challenge on Saturday, October 10th in the Marvin Center room 404 from 2:30-4pm. Attend to learn how you and other members of the GW community can collaborate to combat poverty in DC.
