Micro-volunteering rocks! Did you know that the world's best organizations encourage their employees to volunteer for nonprofit organizations? Some, like Microsoft actually make their conference rooms available during Give month to host micro-volunteering events. Thank you, Brian Lysaght, BSEE, PMP Tommy Ramsey Barbara Acevedo Visser, CPCC, ACC and other Give month leaders! (Photos from Oct 2019).

Volunteers Needed! You can help our video teachers even if you do not know Hindi. Want to share the magic of Toni Morrison or Martin Luther King or your love of History with kids in rural India? You can create lesson plans in English by tapping into your skills of storytelling and teaching. Our teachers can translate them into Hindi and teach the chapter on video.
