Click here Date: February 26-28th - Grand Rapids, MI IMPORTANT EVENT INFORMATION Our number one goal when planning this event was to put a concept in motion where all interested students and schools will have the opportunity to attend the State Conference in-person. In order to achieve this initiative, certain logistical components must be altered to accommodate our traditional group size, while considering industry COVID protocols for facilitating events. Instead of incorporating a school attendee limitation or limiting the overall attendance of this event, this year’s State Conference will be broken into two attending groups over the course of the same weekend. This allows the State Conference to maximize the amount of students that want to attend, while having the flexibility to spread out inside the conference venue. We strongly feel all interested students should have the opportunity to attend the State Conference and not be turned away due to lack of imagination on our part. 2022 State Conference Model: Positives!

All collected items can be brought to the state conference to complete our onsite service project and allow these wonderful organizations to provide for families around the state. Service leadership is one of our primary core values and we are excited to continue our work supporting outstanding nonprofits around the state of Michigan – while allowing your students to exercise their passions and commitment to making our state a better place to live and grow.
