Answer 1

Find out about collecting for our soldiers at war. I know that they need silly string, really, it can save their life, sometimes the enemy will run a trip wire to a hand grenade, when they step on it, it blows them up. So they use silly string and shoot it in front of them, if theres a trip wire, it will hang in the air. You could sell wrist bands with the soldiers name on it and their unit number, kinda like adopt a soldier,each person that buys one will be able to write and communicate with there soldier, you will need an address for each one and a list of items that each soldier needs.Help your soldier return home safely. Good Luck

Answer 2

Over the years I volunteered from Special Olympics to other charities or political causes. Right now I volunteer with the State MHDD facility to chair the independent committee that reviews why rights restrictions are placed on the people served (clients).

I congratulate you for volunteering with an animal organizations. Everyone should give back to the community, regardless of their age.

Answer 3

You can start a drug free program to teach young children the importance of education and to stay away from drugs, very effective and a great way to help your community. Also just be a good mentor to them, this way your efforts will have impacted the future.
