National Day of Service
Unidos con Propósito / United with Purpose (UP!)
NALFO’s National Day of Service (NDOS) Initiative
The National Day of Service started in 2012 and has become one of the key initiatives led by NALFO and its members. The theme for the NDOS is “UP!” which means Unidos con Proposito / United with Purpose.
In coming together for a day such as this we anticipate fostering community but more importantly to make a meaningful collective impact. Our organizations are so very powerful on their own, but united, the realm of possibilities is truly limitless. We set forth big goals and we count on our member organizations and community members to ensure our projects are full with volunteers.
All service projects are organized by volunteers from our member organizations: Regional Coordinators and Project Coordinators. We are very thankful for all our amazing past, current, and future Region and Project Coordinators who have given so much of their time, talent, and effort to design these service projects. Their commitment to NALFO and their communities is inspiring.
If you are interested in collaborating on a project in your local community please reach out to our Vice President of Member Services for details at MemberServices@NALFO.org.
