An integral part of the Young Leaders in Action Conference is the opportunity for the youth to participate in service learning projects. The Volunteer Center of Cedar Valley is responsible for securing the projects. We would love to have our agencies give us some work for the students to accomplish. Examples of past projects include: making May baskets for residents at Country View, assembling 10K race packets, labeling raincoats for Honor Flight, and assembling food bags for the Northeast Iowa Food Bank. We have a captive audience of young people who are energetic and excited about helping. Give us some of your work and allow us to help. The YLA conference is October 25 at UNI. Please contact Jean Seeland, 272-2087 or email Jean_Seeland@vccv.org.
