Past Leaders
Its a great way to end the week because you get to kick back with a lot of fun, insightful young people and it was powerful to see them transform into community leaders by the end of the program.
- Caitlyn C., Group Leader 07-08
Its amazing to see young people who have taken the initiative to give up their Saturdays to do service; its awesome to see young people (making) a stand.
