PVSA

As I mentioned when I got the partnership approval, that AJD Connection is an official certifying organization for the President’s Volunteer Service Award.  What is this about? A Certifying Organization is entity that is approved to review and verify a volunteer’s hours, and nominate and distribute the President’s Volunteer Service Awards (PVSA).   As I moved on towards the path of  giving my commitment to helping others and making new connections that bring us closer together as families, as neighbors, as communities, and as a Nation. I am getting ready of embracing volunteers to help in anyway you can and encourage people to serve.  More heads can make the world a better place to live!

I am also preparing my daughter AJD and my youth groups to get involve  by volunteering with me at AJD Angels of Hope Foundation and AJD Connection or in the communities not only as a requirements  in high school graduation but to prepare themselves in becoming a better person and a new leader of tomorrow.  Below are the criteria for the PVSA as copied from their website. 

As I write this, I created three groups that you can volunteer at:

AJD Connection
AJD Angels of Hope Foundation
AJD Stampers Club

This is still very new to me but all of us will have the opportunity to work on this as we progress.  I have the service key to be used by individual person or family to log the hours you volunteer.   AJD and I are getting so busy, this is the best alternative that I can continue working with my daughter on service projects without the Girl Scout Council pushing so many requirements  for the Girl Scout Silver and Gold award.   I envisioned to work on this with her as her Girl Scout leader but it will never happen, she quits on me! :-(
