What can I actually *do* to make a difference in the world? I already volunteer at the local humane society and at my parish, I'm founding a gay-straight alliance at my high school, I try to be polite, not pollute, or take up too many resources, and I would vote if I were old enough to do so. But I know that I am not doing enough to improve the world. What can I do?

Many people throughout the world have no healthcare, food, water, shelter, or hope. Politics are corrupt. People are often so wrapped up in their own lives that they never stop to think about the well-being of others, if they think at all. Money is god if sex is not. War kills and maims people throughout the world, and we're killing our own planet.

I do not mean to be depressing, I mean to ask what can I do to honestly make a real difference in this world. I realise that I'm disillusioned but at least I'm thinking. It just seems that either everyone is too big to care or too little to do anything.

How can I help?

this is really something im having a lot of trouble thinking about.
bascially to cut a long story short, someone sent a letter to my house.addressed to my dad and not written in english.but in my other language which i do not know how to read or write.my dad didnt open it my mum did.it bascially said to my dad that im [his daughter] and my name was written, i am going around with some guy and it named most of the places we apprently went to.it says ive ben to his house, the west end and along with few other places.the letter was almost detailed account fo what i did.and the worse thing is how does this person happen to turn up at all these places and whats it got to do with this person.if sone one is so concerend about my whereabouts, wouldnt normal people just come up to and talk to me, or even tell my dad face to face, why write a anonymous letter im really shcoked.......im 21 for gods sake and i wasnt even doing anything wrong....how dare this person who i have no idea who it is, why are they doing this.dont otehr people do this.i know a million people go to a kmillion places everyday i just cant see why this happened to me.the letter bascially said that my dad should have more control of me and that i was going out with some bloke [and i shouldnt be...]letter said that my paretns are really good peole and how cold i bring a bad name to them,/it was writeen in a sympathetic tone towards my father but that would obviously make it look believable.

ps..] the event they spoke of happened more than 6 months ago....so they all mentioned old things
2] it was written in another language...i dnt know anyone my age who can write in that language excpet someone my dads ages.....like an uncle
3] i just done understand why someone wud write a letter home.why not just tell my dad to his face...are they being cunning or doing something they think is for the best
the letter said i didnt want to tell you to your face as it would embarses my dad
but writiing a letter? that wouldnt make it worse?how could someone be so cunning...i just dont get it..why someone would do it....wouldnt writing a letter cause more grief?
AND APPenrently everyone is talking about me....probly saying `oh look at so and sos daughter the slag` even though i am not.....
im sscared as someone might be follwing me or i have no idea whats going on....its making my life a nightmare.....
whats going on
i havent showed my dad yet mum said it may cuase more bad than good...what shall i do...

We have serious problems in our neighborhood with people of a certain ethnic group. The police have been called repeatedly, and all it ends up in is the police doing nothing, and then those same members of the ethnic group retaliating by throwing eggs, breaking windows etc. We really need the Klan here to clean this place up. we live in a small town in a rural county and have never until recently had any problems like this. You even used to be able to sleep with your doors open at night up until about 2 yrs ago. If the police won't handle the problem then someone has to. I already know how to get the Hell's Angels here, but the Klan would work much better. I am not a racist person, but it does seem that whenever you have a group of people of that certain ethnic persuation gathered together there is always trouble started. Hope someone can help me here.

I am a Junior in HS and I would like to raise money for a non-profit org which helps poor with their health neccesiities in Asia. I don't know how to start it and how people can trust that I will be giving away the money. My mom is willing to make some complimentary snacks to give it to the people who donate.

I have had it on my heart to become a foster parent and it's been on my heart for a long time. I finally picked up the phone and called the children's aid society and they'd like me to come for orientation on Monday. Any advice for me if I do become a foster parent? I'm a singlemom with a 7 year old daughter, if that info helps. Thanks.
