DoSomething.org Mission

We believe young people have the power to make a difference. It is our aim to inspire, support and celebrate a generation of do-ers: people who see the need to do something, believe in their ability to get it done, and then take action.

YOUTH SERVICE AMERICA (YSA) is a resource center that partners with thousands of organizations committed to increasing the quality and quantity of volunteer opportunities for young people, ages 5-25, to serve locally, nationally, and globally. Founded in 1986, YSA's mission is to expand the impact of the youth service movement with communities, schools, corporations, and governments.

YSA envisions a global culture of engaged youth who are committed to a lifetime of service, learning, leadership and achievement.

"Thanks to a Youth Venture Youth Service America  technology grant, the SVL team was able to purchase a new computer to build this website and apply for non-profit status.  Youth Service America has also been a great inspiration on the direction and mission of the StudentVolunteerLINK.com website to promote youth volunteerism and philanthropy."

"We are grateful to the many Community members and anonymous business donors who donated paper supplies, envelopes and office supplies that have enabled the SVL "office" to run it's daily operations."
