This is the blog presentation of Dr. Lori Gore-Green about the importance of teens getting involved in community service. The website Volunteennation.org provides teens with a unique shot at community service. This organization allows teens to choose a location and a topic they are interested in. With this information, Volunteen Nation then creates a list of projects that they can choose from that match their interests. Dr. Lori Gore-Green is always encouraging young adults to participate and volunteer. A little bit of help can go a long way.

2. Community Service is a great
thing to be a part of. There
are so many areas of
volunteering. Today it is so
easy to find community
service tailored to your
hobbies, interests, or beliefs.

3. There are websites and programs to
help individuals find specific
community service opportunities as
incentive to get more people
involved and to assure them that
community service can be great fun
and will teach us how to appreciate
what we have.

4. One website that is particularly
remarkable is VolunteenNation.org.
This website is strictly for teens to
search for exciting volunteer
opportunities. While there are
several websites like this for adults,
this is specifically special as it
encourages individuals to get
involved from a young age.

5. It is important for teens to
experience helping others and
the feeling of appreciation that is
granted to them upon doing so.

6. The way it works is that teens
search for volunteer opportunities
based on category, location and
age. The Volunteen Nation team
leads service projects all over the
nation, giving teens travel
experience and a sense of culture.

7. The goal of the program is to get
teens involved in their
communities and to encourage
them to join Volunteen Nation
events. Volunteen Nation also
features celebrity advocates that
give back and help inspire teens to
do the same.

8. Volunteen Nation also offers grants
and scholarships for youth
involved in community service.
These are used to reward the youth
that have made a difference in their
communities.

9. There are simple requirements
necessary to receive these
rewards, however they are not
difficult and they will help
someone else in the meantime.

10. Volunteen Nation will change our
youth for the better, providing
them with the necessary resources
to serve their communities and
themselves.
