National Learn and Serve Challenge

The white house is kicking-off its Learn and Serve Challenge this week, which is a seven-month campaign to increase awareness and public support for service-learning. It begins this week and will culminate in April 2011 with a few key milestones along the way, such as engaging local media through Service-Learning Solution Media Days in January, showcasing and sharing effective strategies and activities to build support for service-learning at the 2011 National Service-Learning Conference and celebrating service efforts around the country in conjunction with Global Youth Service Day.
