Community Service

Are you having trouble getting your community service credits for college? Are you getting lost in the maze of options?

How about starting a hunger awareness club in your school? Get some of your friends together and talk to your teacher. Start a club.

You could raise money for the hungry in Darfur or for the survivors of Katrina or any charity of your choice.

I met a 15 year old girl at a coffee house in my neighborhood that has a foundation that raises world hunger awareness. She hangs out here with her parents who own the venue every Saturday and talks to all the customers about hunger. Last time I was there she was creating a project poster with butterflies and encouraged every customer to color a butterfly for hunger awareness!!!

Now that is a cool way to get your community service credits.

Here are some links to look at:
