PRESIDENT’S VOLUNTEER SERVICE AWARD

ISTE is an official certifying organization for the President's Volunteer Service Award, which honors individuals who demonstrate commitment and inspire others to volunteer. Any individual, family, or group can receive presidential recognition for volunteer hours earned over a 12-month period or over the course of a lifetime at home or abroad.

Testimonial

Kara Gann 

"I volunteer for ISTE because it is the number-one thing in my career that fills my bucket. I love the connections it gives me and the skills and knowledge I can bring back to my district. I love how when I’m with the people at ISTE, I feel so happy. I feel like I’m with people who have like minds, who are on the same page, who are truly a piece of my future and the future of education."

—Kara Gann, ISTE Board member
