World Wide Volunteer Week

What is WWVW and why should I participate?

April 18-26 marks Sun's 15th annual Worldwide Volunteer Week (WWVW). And this year we want you to join us in helping Change Your World!

How can you change your world with technology, wellness or sustainability? We'd like to find out!! Put together a volunteer project in your community doing something that your good with - If technology is your specialty, donate some time at your school and install some programs for them. Sun is here to provide you with the resources and tools you may need to put together your volunteer project. You can also join others' projects by connecting with them on the WWVW Team Leader Club within OSUM.

More resources will be coming in the next few days, but right now I want you to:
1. Join this group (and tell your friends to join!)
2. Start thinking about what volunteer projects you would like to be apart of
3. And most importantly download the files I have posted
So WHY should I get involved?

You are helping change the world
Your peers will see all that you have done
You are connecting with others who share your passion

AND NOW THE REALLY COOL STUFF

Think about the question “What would you do to positively change your world in your community in an area surrounding technology, wellness, or sustainability?”
1. Create a project using the tools provided by Sun to create your own project or join another persons
2. Document your efforts by snapping photos, blogging about it, or taking a video
3. Upload and link your efforts on the OSUM Team Leader Club Page
4. Great videos will be featured on sun.com/students
5. Great overall media uploads with projects that involve Java will be featured on a completely NEW student tab on the java.com homepage. Write ups around this program will kick-start a new student tab
6. An official Sun writeup will be featured on the student tab on sun.com
7. Jonathan Schwartz will chat about the program, and point to sun.com/students. If you are a great contributor, then your video may be featured
