Come by to check out our display of the IAVE World Volunteer Conference in Singapore to learn about volunteering around the world. We will have paper cranes available and for a $0.50 donation you can personalize your own. All cranes will be on display in the UCC and our goal is to make 100 cranes throughout the day.IAVE International Youth Volunteer Conference Opening Ceremonies

This year, the Dream Team has been involved in a volunteer competition held by the International Association for Volunteer Effort (IAVE), an organization that is in association with the United Nations. The competition involves creating a short 1 minute video that describes your charity and increases the awareness of the importance of volunteering. The top 20 voted videos will move onto the next stage and be assessed by a panel of judges based on the video’s originality, creativity, story, and technique used. The winner of this competition will be announced on December 5th and will be invited to IAVE’s Youth Volunteer Conference in Singapore (January 21-23, 2011). They will then be invited to present their video and raise awareness for their cause.

We can’t do it without you! The voting lasts from November 22nd -30th so please take the time to vote for our video and share our message with others.
