Global Youth Service Day (GYSD) is the largest annual celebration of young volunteers, where millions of young people in countries everywhere carry out thousands of community improvement projects. All organizations are encouraged to plan youth-led community service projects that involve the broader community in GYSD or showcase existing projects to the media and surrounding community.

The project for GYSD has changed, we are now seeking volunteers to help clean up John Rudy County Park, which is located near Central High School in York. Help us mulch, pull weeds and clean so that all members of the community can enjoy a clean, safe park.

Our event will take place on Saturday, April 18th from 10-2 pm at John Rudy County Park, located near Central High School in York, to sign-up contact Kim Goff, 717-771-3822 or email goffk@unitedway-york.org.
