From ServLife International ... "Drive a Spoke"

ServLife International is a movement defined by values of God’s kingdom, not programs built around human efforts and activities. The reign and rule of God should be made apparent to every person on the planet, despite their religion, race or socioeconomic status.

This happens through individual contributions of time, creativity, resources and dreams.
