The Absolute Value of One

IMAGINE...

Imagine a world in which people everywhere recognize the value of all human beings and appreciate one another for their differences.

Imagine a culture that is more empathetic, compassionate, understanding, and proactive in helping fellow human beings and making the world a better place in which to live.

Imagine beginning the process of developing responsible civic leaders by showing students that their thoughts and opinions not only matter, but can accomplish many things.

Imagine planting these seeds of thought in the kindergarten classroom and continuing to sow them until the day of graduation.

The Absolute Value of One is a 501(c)3 organization that specializes in curriculum design based on the concept of service-learning. It is our vision to offer our services to educators, schools, and community organizations at an affordable rate by seeking the support of donors so we can empower all students everywhere to give back to their communities many times over.

"Inspiring and empowering youth to engage actively in the community through service-learning and educational programs designed to appreciate the absolute value of every human being."
