The project theme this year is A Million And One. Our goal is to have A Million And One volunteers serving on this day. By focusing on the million, we are trying to get a large number of people serving one another to grow the goodness in the world.

Comfort For Canines

valentinessbabii — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 13:22:00 -0500

Comfort For Canines is a individually founded program in which I collect blankets, towels, comforters, and dogs beds in new or good condition. Also, paper towels and hand sanitizer are collected and donated to the Broward Humane Society, including its many branch offices. I travel there three times a month, depending on the size of the present donation load. So far, we have collected over thousands of dollars in paper and bedding for Broward County alone.

Keepin' It Green

Mission: As a group, we are striving to advocate to our community for environmental concerns. By designing a kick-off of environmental action, we strongly believe that people simply need the knowledge! As the catalyst, we hope to benefit our lives and those of future generations.

Description: On April 26, 2008, we will be hosting a day of tree and flower planting at a local open space. Involving our school, inspiring our leadership, and envisioning our dream are ways we are taking the current problems into our own hands.

The Pacifica Project Peace club is trying to go on a community service trip in conjunction with the company "amor", in order to build a house for a poor family in northern mexico. As a club, we will drive down to San Diego, receive immigration advice, and drive to Mexico where we will camp for five days. Within that time, the group will work soley to build a house for a very deserving, yet impoverished, family. At the end of the trip, we will present the house to the family, changing their lives forever.

Play For The Planet

I would like to start a sand volleyball tournament and cook out at the Band Shelter on 23rd Street in Bettendorf, Iowa this summer. There are two courts there, so we could have two pools of teams playing at once. The champion form each bracket would play in the end. ALL MONEY EARNED WOULD GO INTO BUYING TREES, which would be planted around the city. I am going to try to see if Wallaces Garden Center (or some other local garden center) will sell us trees for a discounted price. If possible, I also would like to hold a barbeque for any hungry people nearby.

R.O.O.T. (Running Out of Time) Darfur Activism Committee

R.O.O.T. (Running Out of Time) Darfur Activism Committee was co-founded by my friend Ana and I after we attended the Save Darfur Rally in New York City. Darfur, a vast region in Western Sudan, Africa has been the location of increasing violence. Not in a Civil War, but in genocide, the governmentally supported Janjaweed militia has been systematically killing the non-Arab African population since 2003 in what has been called "The Holocaust of the 21st Century".
