Do something fun and meaningful... such as holding an event for charity... but don't just make a charity box and ask people to add money... do something fun such as holding a pizza night or a small fair... something people can have fun at while contributing to society at the same time.

Ask for donations for something then send it to whatever you are donating for (cancer hospital in your city, etc.).
Cleaning up a highway or picking up trash in your park or something like that.
Volunteer work somewhere.
Stuff like that.
