Help us to spread the word!

Hi Kids,

Did you know that 60 million Americans volunteered 8.1 billion hours
of service in 2007? They collected and distributed food. They
raised money. They spent their time helping neighbors.

Guess which state has the most service hours?

If you guessed Utah you are right!

Residents of Provo, Utah, offered up the most time-132 hours, on
average, per person! GO UTAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here are the states where volunteers were most likely to give more
than 100 hours of service.

Utah 44%
Nebraska 40%
Minnesota 40%
Alaska 39%
Montana 38%

If your state is not listed here then we should get busy!!!!

I have begun our church outreach program here in Arizona. I will be
speaking to three different church youth groups next month! We are
looking for kids to join our Kids Care club and help us to further
our mission. You can get more involved and help us to spread the
word in your state. The beauty of our program is we can spread our mission to kids
everywhere! We are "global" thinkers here at GCA so think BIG!!
