VT Seva Tampa collaborates with Books For Africa to improve access to education for children across Africa by collecting and donating gently used books. VT Seva (Volunteering Together for Service and Education) is a nonprofit organization that empowers youth to lead service initiatives focused on education, health, and community development. As part of this mission, the Tampa chapter organizes book drives to support global literacy through Books For Africa, the largest shipper of donated books to the African continent. Community members are encouraged to contribute children’s books, which are collected at drop-off points and sent to African schools and libraries. Students and student ambassadors lead the effort, planning drives, coordinating collections, and spreading awareness, while earning volunteer hours and developing leadership skills. This initiative not only helps close the educational resource gap abroad but also encourages responsibility and socialization among students in the Tampa area. Sign up and start collecting the books.

PAST EVENT

The DAV stands for Disabled America Veterans. As a symbol of remembrance and to commemorate the lives of soldiers, servicemen, and women that were lost fighting, little blue Forget-Me-Nots have been created since World War I. The DAV collects these flowers and are distributed to veterans to show our support for them. Annually, 500,000 flowers are created in support for this cause. Joining in, VT Seva Cary has decided to volunteer to create 5,000 Forget-Me-Nots for the DAV. Volunteers gathered at one location to help create these flowers. They were tasked with attaching flowers to a stick as well as adding a paper indicating what the meaning of the flowers were. After being collected we were able to create a gracious amount of Forget-Me Nots for the event. On August 17th and 24th , 35 Youth Volunteers did a great job staying on task, finishing the flowers efficiently, while helping make a big difference in the veterans’ lives.
