Gamers for Humanity has recently revamped their website (http://
www.gamersforhumanity.org), and revealed the 28k Project, to encourage
gamers to log 28,000 hours of volunteer work over the course of the
next year.

Here's the full story in their own words, taken from their monthly
newsletter:

"With the new website comes our newest program, a project that is all
about celebrating you and your contributions to your community. The
28k Project is our latest attempt to encourage community involvement,
and to encourage people to share their stories about the volunteer
work they do.

There are two ways to get involved:
1. Logging your hours
2. Telling your story

The easiest way to participate is to volunteer in your community, and
then log your hours at our website. We are trying to reach the
challenging goal of 28,000 hours of volunteer work between now and
next August... so we need to log as many of your hours as we can get.

If you want to go one step farther, you can volunteer, then come tell
us your story. Posting a story about your volunteer work—who you
worked with, what you did, who you met — will enable visitors to vote
for your story. The best stories each month win prize packages donated
to us by some great companies.

The rules and necessary forms are all on the new website, whether you
want to tell your story or just log your hours. Everyone is welcome. "

I know for certain that there are many of you out there who already
volunteer your time and energy to helping your community, so this
would only be a matter of logging the work that you already do, and
maybe even sharing a story that can inspire others. For the rest of
you - get involved! It's not difficult to find some way that you can
help - I have a lot of suggestions on the BeQuest ideas page (http://
www.theescapist.com/bequest/ideas.htm). Pick something, dive in, log
your hours, and share your story!<p>

You can find out more at 28k Project page - http://www.gamersforhumanity.org/28k
- and be sure to let them know that The Escapist sent you!
