These local trips often take less than 30 minutes and v olunteers can choose to do just one-way if not both ways.

\nWeekend Drivers – Volunteers are needed to drive members to/from religious services\, the gr ocery store\, and assist with other general errands.

Upon conclusion\, participants wil l be able to demonstrate their understanding and knowledge of a leader’s c ore essentials through a service learning project\, weekly homework and jo urnaling assignments\, discussions\, presentations\, and a culmination pro ject.\n
\n\n Our youth will become ‘Ambassadors’ allowing them to bec ome well versed in the theoretical and practical application of a leader’s core essentials and be capable of utilizing them within their home\, scho ol\, and community. This allows them to personally develop through leaders hip programs and have access to tools and resources that not only helps su ch youth to apply to college\, but also prepares them to succeed in life. \n
\n\n The Leadership Program consists of 5 modules that are 8 weeks in length. The modules expands our youth knowledge base by providing sign ificant exposure to real-life work experiences\, hands-on activities that challenge their decision making process\, and intense cross-cultural volun teer projects both locally and abroad.
