Young Leaders in Service
Cabinet Chairman Mike Trevena reports:
With this project your Club can promote and encourage involvement in community service to Youth in your area.
Awards are granted to recognize 2 levels of service over a period of 12 months. A Silver Award for 50 hours service.
A Gold Award for 100 hours service.
These certificates are signed by our International President and can be presented to participants at a special club function , maybe your Youth of The Year club final.
Several clubs in our District have been involved with this program your secretary may have a Young Leaders in Service kit on file.
Please contact me if I can help you become involved with this great youth project.
