The Valentine Peace Project
The Northern California InterCorps Council collaborated with The Valentine Peace Project for our inaugural service project. Through poetry, sharing and public reflection The Valentine Peace Project encourages a creative dialogue on peace leading up to the worldwide love holiday. Throughout the year, poems are submitted to the Valentine Peace Project's website (www.valentinepeaceproject.org).
This project culminated on Saturday February 14, 2009 when numerous volunteers and community members distribute carnations and the poems to anyone they wish.
