First of all, if you ate or drank something by mistake, your fast is not broken.
If you broke or couldn't have your fast because of some sickeness, or you were in between a long travelling, then you can just make-up one fast for loosing one after Eid.
If you intensionally broke or didn't have your fast, then there are 2 possibilities. Whether you have 60 continuous fasts, or have 1 fast and give a hungary some food. Now about in US, this is a problem to find someone who is hungary and want food. Mostly, if you give a beggar some money, he would buy bear for him. If you know someone out of USA, then send him/her some money to give a hungary some food. This is not that difficult. Or ask your parents to help you.
If you still have some trouble, email me with the city you live, I would try my best to help sort out the problem.

Well, if you accidentally ate something and didn't realize, your fast is still valid. Or if you had a valid reason to break your fast, such as sickness etc. But if you intentionally broke it for no reason, then you have to do the kaffarah which i think is feeding 40 needy people, or feeding 1 needy person for 40 days. I take it you're in the U.S. so you might have to send the money with specific instructions to another country. Check with an imam and make sure the people have to be needy. If not, then you can just sponser an Iftar or have a dinner or something.
Also, once again, check with an imam on what to do because after reading Jamar's post, I vaguely recall something like that too.

No, you need to make the fast up, and there are plenty of places to find hungry people in the US - ask your parents to help you.
