SkillsUSA National Week of Service
SkillsUSA students and teachers nationwide are asked to lend their technical expertise and
leadership skills to help others during the SkillsUSA National Week of Service, scheduled
for May 7-11, 2007. The annual event is conducted In honor of the May 8 anniversary of
the founding of SkillsUSA. The SkillsUSA National Week of Service shines a spotlight on our
dedication to serving others while showcasing the skills of career and technical education
students who are learning to become tomorrow's leaders.
Many SkillsUSA chapters are already participating in local community service projects. All
we ask is that you hold an event during the week of May 7-11. By coordinating hundreds
of events to be held during the same week, SkillsUSA has the potential to command
nationwide attention. The SkillsUSA headquarters will lend its support in promoting the
national day of service, and will provide you with resources to help make your events a
success.
We're offering a free SkillsUSA gift item valued at $15 to every chapter advisor who sends
in a brief report on their community service activity held during May 7-11. Just let us know
in a paragraph or two (photos are also welcome) what your chapter is doing to help your
community, and we'll send you a gift to say thanks for keeping us informed. Reports are
due by May 31, 2007.
For more information on the 2007 SkillsUSA National Week of Service and planning
materials, go to http://www.skillsusa.org/events/service.shtml
Please e-mail reports and photos of your community service efforts to: Karen Perrino,
SkillsUSA director of marketing, at kperrino@skillsusa.org. (Be sure to include your full
name, school, city and state, telephone number and all of the project details.)
