What's Your Story?
National Volunteer Week, April 12-18, 2015, is about inspiring, recognizing and encouraging people to seek out imaginative ways to engage in their communities. It’s about demonstrating to the nation that by working together, we have the fortitude to meet our challenges and accomplish our goals.
National Volunteer Week is about taking action and encouraging individuals and their respective communities to be at the center of social change – discovering and actively demonstrating their collective power to make a difference.
National Volunteer Week, a program of Points of Light, was established in 1974 and has grown exponentially each year, with thousands of volunteer projects and special events scheduled throughout the week.
To celebrate people doing awesome things and encourage others to get involved, you can "play" along by sharing your story on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. Posts and messages can be fun, serious, emotional, or inspirational! Make sure to include "What's Your Story", tag friends and use #NVW2015.
