Miley Cyrus helps celebrate a year of service on YouTube
Wednesday, June 2, 2010
We launched
YouTube Video Volunteers
last June at the
National Conference on Volunteering and Service
(NCVS) to help nonprofits who struggle with creating great video, engage the passionate YouTube community, and introduce the idea that the Internet can be a powerful force for volunteerism. One year later, the YouTube community has created over 500 videos for nonprofits working on a vast array of issues from health to human rights, animal welfare to the arts -- and these videos have received millions of views.
This month, we’re teaming up with a true YouTube veteran, Miley Cyrus, to celebrate the organizations that devote themselves to promoting service and volunteerism on the ground and online; organizations like our partner
Service Nation
, Miley’s own org
Get Ur Good On
, mentoring orgs like Big Brothers/Big Sisters and countless others. To find one that you’d like to make a video for, visit
www.youtube.com/videovolunteers
. Then submit it by June 23 for the chance to be featured on the YouTube homepage during this year’s National Conference on Volunteering and Service at the end of the month.
Here’s more from Miley about this round of Video Volunteers:
Thanks for contributing your time and video skills to making the world, and YouTube, a better place. Together, we can make sure nonprofits everywhere continue to be recognized for their amazing work.
