Growing In Goodness announces this year's theme for the Nations Of Service Day on 8/8/08.  This year's theme is A Million And One. 

This years goal is to have A Million And One people participating in service worldwide on 8/8/08.  The Million And One focus is to get a large number involved in serving others but still recognize that it is every individual that matters.  The Million And One focus reminds us that strength comes in numbers, but that it only takes one to change the world.  It reminds us that to the world, you might be only one person, but to one person, you might be the world. 

Growing In Goodness is teaming up with many groups, organizations, and individuals.  To start or join a project in your area go to www.GrowingInGoodness.com and click on NATIONS OF SERVICE.
