FW: Nobel Peace Laureates and Service Learning!

Do you work with youth or know someone who does?

PeaceJam, nominated for the 2008 Nobel Peace Prize, will be having opportunities to get trained in their inspiring service-learning curriculum this spring! The mission of the PeaceJam Foundation is to create a new generation of young leaders committed to positive change in themselves, their communities and the world through the inspiration of Nobel Peace Laureates. We have twelve Peace Laureates, including the Dalai Lama, who sit on our board of directors and act as living people of peace for the youth of today to study and become inspired by! The International Headquarters, in Arvada, is also hiring for their 2009-2010 Americorps VISTA team - click here for job descriptions!
