The Corporation for National and Community Service has joined with the Cartoon Network, National Basketball Association, the PTA and other organizations in the "Rescuing Recess" campaign, which aims to recruit volunteers to give 1 million hours this school year to support recess and physical activity in schools.
Schools wishing to participate in this year's Rescuing Recess program should visit http://www.cartoonrecessweek.com/ for more information.
Top-recruiting schools from each state and the District of Columbia can earn $2,500 grants toward supporting physical activity programs and healthy lifestyle initiatives, as well as $250 gift certificates for sports merchandise. An ultimate winning school will be announced in June to receive a $25,000 cash grant and a recess rally event.
