The youth from different schools all over the country make up a large chunk of the volunteer force of GK on ground.  The engagements include :

1. Many universities include GK volunteer work in their curriculum under the National Service Training Program (NSTP) institutionalized by the Department of Education. Students comply to a certain number of hours of community work by spending it in various tasks at a GK community their school has decided to adopt. 


2. There have been schools at different levels (from pre-schools, elementary, high school, degree courses and universities) who participate in GK through a specific program designed for the entire year, supported by the entire administration, faculty, staff and students.
   


3.  At a more informal level, key groups within schools – whether just the faculty or just the students – pursue GK as an independent extra-curricular activity through a specific program or in GK events (such as the annual Bayani Challenge).
   


4. GK can likewise be an official organization or a specially-created office within an institution (like the Ateneo-GK).  Authorized and even championed by the school administrators, it offers GK to the entire school system (alumni included) as a legitimate, sustainable and permanent channel for the work with the poor.

By providing the above opportunities for students to serve the poor and their country, their character and lives are enhanced and deepened.
