Action Team Connects MLB Players with High School Students
High School Students Can Make a Difference
Once high school students join the Action team, they get the following.
1. Free step by step volunteer projects.
2. Free posters and brochures.
3. Free subscription to the Wall Street Journal ($200 value).
4. Monthly conference calls with major league players.
5. Scholarship opportunities.
6. Access to volunteer services.
There is no better feeling than make a difference in somebody's life. The Action Team does just that. It also teaches individual responsibility to young individuals.
There are more than 150 high schools already involved in this program. To date, it has served up assistance to more than 111,000 individuals in need. This program offers young people to make an impact on their local communities.
Action Team members have a captain that recruits young individuals to make a difference. These teams then do things like supplying man power for projects, cleaning up parks, highways and neighborhoods, helping street people, working with the elderly, collecting books for children to read and assisting other charities and organizations.
This is a very worthwhile organization to belong to. It is inexpensive and it proves that young people can take the lead and make a difference in other people's lives.
