Global Youth Service Day (GYSD), first created by Youth Service America, is an annual event celebrated during National Volunteer Week. From April 26 to 28, 2002, millions of young people will carry out community improvement pro- jects across the world. GYSD is also a time for local, national, and international organizations to recognize the year-round contributions of young people, to recruit a new | generation of volunteers and to promote young people as a key resource in communily.

As we continue to analyze the reasons why people vol- unteer we see that youth become involved when they feel like their efforts are making a difference. Group volunteering opportunities, seeking youth input and connecting youth to communily increase rates of youth volunteering. By recog- nizing and mobilizing youth volunteers, Global Youth
