#YVCDay a Huge Success! #GetHappyProject

On March 5th, all over North America, youth volunteers brightened their communities for the first annual Youth Volunteer Corps Day.

The theme for the very first YVC Day was Project Happiness, where YVC headquarters encouraged youth to perform random acts of kindness to spread cheer around their communities.


Here in Calgary, we had the most amazing day out in the sun, spreading happiness as part of ?#?YVCDay? and our ?#?GetHappyProject?!

Thanks to our amazing youth volunteers for their energy and enthusiasm for hours!

Thanks to our local media outlets for sharing this story of encouragement and happiness during a time when many need their spirits lifted.

And thanks to all everyone who cheered, honked and embraced us, Calgary is awesome!
