Points of Light, the world's largest organization dedicated to volunteer service, mobilizes over 4 million volunteers to take action to change the world. "For a few days in June, thousands of people will come to Washington, D.C. to share all that’s innovative and important in the world of volunteer service,” said Michelle Nunn, CEO of Points of Light. "They will listen and learn, teach and share, inspire and mobilize -- all to engage more volunteers in the critical task of building stronger communities."
With such a wide range of perspectives on volunteer service from a variety of sectors, conference attendees are sure to learn valuable lessons from each other and think creatively about ways to unite to solve challenges in our communities. The Care2 team will be all ears to learn how we, as volunteers, activists and nonprofit professionals, can better empower ourselves and others to create social change.
