We are happy to present to you the official hub of activity for Global Youth Service Day in ATLANTA this year!

We are committed to putting Atlanta on the map as the

Youth Involvement Capital of the world!

We hope to provide the latest dates, important information, and whatever other resources you might need for

Global Youth Service Day this year!

I hope you can join us as we work to change the world, from right here in our metropolitan Atlanta communities.

Here’s a brief history of GYSD:

Global Youth Service Day was launched in 2000 based on the successful implementation of National Youth Service Day, inspired by Youth Service America, which has mobilized millions of young people in service projects every April throughout the United States since 1989. Marking the 20th anniversary of National Youth Service Day, the celebrations were effectively combined under the name Global Youth Service Day. This single branding helps cement the initiative as the world’s largest celebration of young volunteers, and underscores the global scope of activities that take place.

See you all in the near future!
