Deliver meals to the elderly.
Bring gifts to needy children in hospitals.
Wrap gifts for people who can't and offer to help cook meals too.
Work in a soup kitchen.
Donate time and money to some local organizations.
Call local radio/news stations to see if they know of families in need and offer to help any way you can.
Mow someone's lawn, run errands, help with chores for them
Send gifts to those in the military, and maybe to thier children who are missing thier moms and dads
Well good luck. I hope you find a great way to lend your services. There are so many places and people in need. You may also call your local Salvation Army or Goodwill Organization as they are always needing help.

Any charity would be worthy of your help. Be it that smartians, childline, homeless shelter, any of these get a lot of phone calls during Christmas and i am sure it would be a very fulfilling and rewarding job.

there may be a homeless shelter near you that will be doing a xmas dinner for the homeless I know they always need volunteers for them, if you havent got a homeless shelter near you then go and ask your local church if there is anything that you can do!

Get in touch with your local council. There are plenty of places that you can help out at. Social services would benefit from your hard work & time !
