Did you know picture books can be a powerful way to teach kids of all ages about service, kindness, and community involvement?

One of our favorites is Hey, Wall—the story of a young boy named Angel who helps transform his neighborhood through a collaborative community mural project. This inspiring book highlights how kids can make a real difference, bring people together, and create positive change through creativity and teamwork.

Today, Youth Action Collective honors and remembers the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. 🇺🇸

Memorial Day is a time to reflect on the sacrifices made for the freedoms we enjoy and to remember those who served with courage and selflessness. As we gather with family and community today, we do so with gratitude for those who gave everything.

Wishing everyone a meaningful and reflective Memorial Day.

YAC wishes you a very happy World Turtle Day! Check out this feel good story about an eastern box turtle named Rockalina 🐢



Rockalina was an adult eastern box turtle living in the wild when she was taken into a New York home in 1977. When a reptile rehabilitation center got a hold of her this February, they worried for her survival.

Youth Action Collective makes it possible for children as young as 2 years old to serve alongside their families. But what meaningful acts of service can toddlers and preschoolers really take part in? Quite a lot, actually.

From coloring cards to pair with candy for our friends at Paul's Plan Ministries, to enjoying bingo and themed trivia with residents at Rosewalk Village, to helping pack dinner meal kits at Food Finders Food Bank, these young citizens are already making a difference in their community.

Never underestimate the impact of introducing service at an early age. Youth Action Collective helps remove the barriers that often keep young children from volunteering, making it easier for families to serve, connect, and grow together through meaningful community involvement.

Check out the informal data we collected about the ages community members believe children can begin serving and volunteering!

At Youth Action Collective, we believe kids are capable of making a difference earlier than many people think—and we’re excited to share more soon about the ages YAC makes service possible for families and children in our community.

Families are where compassion begins 💛

This International Family Day, we’re celebrating the power of families who serve together, grow together, and make a difference together.
