GOOD Sheet: You Want to Help

President Kennedy famously declared during his inauguration speech that we should ask ourselves what we can do for our country. National service takes many forms—from Americans deployed overseas to senior citizens teaching a new generation how to read. Now that the election is over, let’s continue the spirit of civic engagement. Find out what you can do for your country.

This exploration of national service is a collaboration between GOOD and Piece Studio. GOOD Sheet no. 010 is available in print in Starbucks from November 13-19.

    This is quite impressive to see what has been accomplished thus far. However, as a new member of Teach For America (affiliated with Americorps), we need as much help as we can get in regards to the inequalities in education. Please consider tutoring, teaching, and volunteering within the school systems around you, specifically lower performing schools. Do not be idle.
