Thank you for participating in our second competition. Thanks to you, truehero.org has been a big success in its third year, receiving significant recognition, and thus enabling us to attract donations and sponsorship support for the next school year. Also, your community service projects are included in the competition again for the 2011/2012 school year. The vote counts were re-set to zero as of July 1, 2011, so that you can vote again (once) for your favorite community service project and for as many projects as you like.
If you are a student volunteer,
THANK YOU for inspiring optimism, gratitude and a call to service in all of us.
