Abstract
AbstractOn April 27‒29, 1997, Philadelphia hosted the first‐ever Presidents' Summit for America's Future, an historic meeting that brought unprecedented attention to volunteerism in service to the nation's young people. Based on the experience and careful analysis of a summit delegate, this article concludes that although the spotlight afforded volunteerism was helpful, the hard work to be done by the local delegations to accomplish the summit agenda is not likely to be as successful as organizers hope because of limitations in follow‐up mechanisms and in the capacity and expertise of nonprofit organizations to integrate and manage volunteers effectively.
