“Miley + Youth Service America = Get UR Good ON!”
Do you want to share your volunteering ideas or experiences with the world?
Hannah Montana sometimes known as Miley Cyrus wants to change the world! And she wants you, yes, YOU to share your creative ideas and enriching experiences with the global youth community.
From now on, you won’t see Miley Cyrus TWITTERING about her private life BUT you will see her devote more time to promoting volunteer service amongst teens! Miley Cyrus currently backs the “GET ur GOOD on” (GUGO) which encourages youths to have a platform to place up SHORT FILM VIDEOS to:
Share their recent volunteer / charity experiences,
Provide information for people to get involved with their favorite organization,
Share ideas on how to fix a global issue like clean water or poverty.
Get Ur Good On (www.GETURGOODON.org) is a program from the Youth Service America, an organization that connects you and your friends with volunteer and community service opportunities. GUGO also encourages participation in Global Youth Service Day, the largest service event in the world!
The youths of today are the change-makers of tomorrow and your small idea could grow big and impact lives globally in their own BIG or small ways.
There are many benefits to Volunteering:
Work Experience: You get to learn new potential skills which can be used in the future. These skills include communication, motivation, research and fund-raising skills respectively.
Life Experiences: Once you devote yourself to a certain cause, you will meet interesting new people, gain a sense of empathy, understand the world and its needs as well as realize how privileged you are!
Friendship and Community: You will meet like-minded people whom you can instantly click with! This is a good way to meet new friends who share your ideals and dreams!
Opportunity and Health: Being active is healthier than being idle, and often volunteer work takes place outdoors! Opportunities may also present themselves as well; you may receive a great letter of recommendation, your volunteer work could turn into full time work, or you may even get to travel abroad!
No matter what your area of interest - ANIMALS, PLANET, EDUCATION, HEALTH, COMMUNITY, DREAMS, and more – Your video clip will open a new world of knowledge for other people!
Like iCUBED.us, GUGO is a platform to find out about other people just like you who are making their communities a better place!
Share YOUR stories, "Get Ur Good On", and be a part of it all!
