Global Youth Service Day 2009
Miley Cyrus, known to tweens as Hannah Montana from her eponymous show, has become an ambassador for Youth Service America to promote Global Youth Service Day, which was from April 24th-26th, 2009. Cyrus was announced as one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World in 2008 by Time Magazine (believe it or not!), and is a candidate again in 2009. On the newly-created website, young people can upload videos showing them engaging with their community as part of the 100 Ways To Change The World project, plan their projects and possibly win the chance to be visited by Miley Cyrus.
Global Youth Service Day will take place in over 100 countries around the world and is a great way to get kids enthused about participating in their communities. We may not be big fans of Miley Cyrus ourselves, but given that a lot of young people are, it is nice to see her motivating young people to contribute to the society they live in.
