You could go to college to be a social worker, a nurse, a special education teacher, a regular ed teacher, etc.
Those are all careers that definitely have to do with helping people.
In the mean time, you can volunteer at hospitals, nursing homes, or work at extended school programs!

Finish your school first. It will even be better if you could finish school with a degree in hand as you would definitely be in a much better position to help others. As to what would be the best job for you, I guess it will have to be those associated with special needs. All the best! Cheers to one more kind soul in this world!

Helping children with special needs is indeed a noble career to persue. With a college education, training, and teaching credentials, you can certainly become a special needs educator.
Whatever you do though, get that college education - no matter what your choice of careers.

I would seek God and become and evangelist, they go around the world in groups paid for by the people of the church and they help less fortunate people all over the world while teaching about the love of God. There is no greater gift than the love of God and to give that gift to other as well as helping them to learn to survive by feeding and clothing them would be a great gift to yourself and others. May God bless you with your love for others.

Seriously work and a hospital or clinic, you can help all the people you want there. Seriously go, enjoy life, you sound like you deserve to be happy.
Other then that keep doing what your doing. Good job!

Helping others can be very broad. Doctor, Social Worker, Physical Therapist, Teacher, Minister, Nutritionist, Lawyer... You'll do well in whatever you choose. God Bless.

I have a friend that works with that "make a wish" foundation. He organizes wishes to make them come true. Sounds like that would be amazing if you could get into something like that.
You will find yourself feeling used or drained I think if you work in a hospital, plus thats alot of extra education in my opinion

You can help special needs kids. I'm sure some place needs that help. Just b sure to look at the qualifications you might need.
