At Magnified Giving, we are devoted strengthening our community by increasing youth engagement in service-learning.

Therefore, on July 26, 2023, Magnified Giving is bringing a national expert to the Cincinnati region to provide a Service-Learning workshop for educators!
The Manuel D. and Rhoda Mayerson Foundation is sponsoring this workshop to present it at no cost for teachers from Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. Magnified Giving is thrilled to welcome Julie Rogers Bascom, Director of Learning and Leadership at National Youth Leadership Council (NYLC) to provide high quality training on implementing service-learning.

What is Service-Learning?
According to NYLC, service-learning is an instructional strategy to help young people grow as leaders and engaged citizens as they learn academic content, leadership, and life skills. Through service-learning, youth apply their academic knowledge and skills to real community needs. Need an example? NYLC explains:
“Picking up trash on a river bank is service.
Studying water samples under a microscope is learning.
When science students collect and analyze water samples, document their results, and present findings to a local pollution control agency – that is service-learning.”
