Excellent that he wants to volunteer. The Congressional Award for American Youth is a great way to acknowledge a kid's unsung accomplishments. Prior to volunteering, your sons may want to register with a mentor and establish goals. Then document the hours and activities. It is amazing how the efforts can add up... and lead to goals in new directions.
