Mission: Summer Challenge
With summer in our sights, we’ve got a challenge for students: How many acts of service can you accomplish on your summer break? This bingo board includes some of our favorite missions. Make a plan to do those that resonate with you. Cross them off as you go. Can you get bingo (a straight line horizontally, vertically, or diagonally) or—even better!—finish off the entire board? Team up for maximum impact. Remember, Service Stars shine brighter together! After downloading the bingo card, explore stories about kids making a difference.
