Happy, hot Monday! I can’t promise that the list of service-related links below will cool you down, but there’s a good chance they’ll leave you feeling inspired.

  • The Huffington Post published an article that helps break down the myths and share the facts about hunger amongst America’s senior population.
  • The Jewish Week included a profile on Grow & Behold – a kosher, sustainable meat company that recently celebrated its first birthday.
  • GOOD published an interesting piece on compostable books (really!) and what they can teach us about the green economy.

  • Ashoka’s Youth Adventure     blog offers a how-to tutorial on mobilizing support within your community about the causes you care about.
  • The State Journal Register in Springfield, Illinois published an article on the immersive service work teens from across North America are doing in Illinois through the American Jewish Society for Service.
