There are several things that I can suggest to you.....
But before you try and start some thing drastic I suggest that you start from something small and work up....
For example since school is starting up...... organize a food drive(start one with your class mates)... even better would be to get the entire school into the idea of grouping together food
Organize something like a lazer quest game and ask your all your friends to come.... and try and see how many people are comming cause the group limit is something like 30...... ask them if they want to come at a discounted group price they should also bing three items of non-perishable food items....
think..... dream ....... explore....... plan and have fun.... just because you're 12 years old doesn't mean that you can't do anything.....
Craig Kielburger started a program called "Free the Children" he raised 150 000 for the children in India to raise awareness of child labour
He was 12
Your passion can really start something.....

I think starting a food drive at your school would be a good place to start. If that goes well you could talk to the principal about doing a hat week or jeans week, depending on your dress code. Each student could pay $.50 to wear a hat or a pair of jeans. The principal could submit any money you make to the charity of your choice. If it works well at your school ask for help to expand it to other schools in your area. You might think about finding out if there are any sick/disabled kids in your school and what it is they have. Support your classmates and more people will join in. Good luck!

At your age, I don't think you can do a lot of helping without your parent's permission.It is a noble work and although I do not know you personally,I am proud of you.How I wish I have a child like you.When your parents allow you to do some charity work, try start going to different institutions where you can pray and give moral support to people specially to children since you do not have money of your own.

AT YOUR AGE THERE OTHER MORE IMPORTANT PRIORITIES - LIKE GETTING A GOOD EDUCATION. BUT DOING GOOD FOR OTHERS IS ALSO AN IMPORTANT PART OF BECOMING A WELL-ROUNDED PERSON. I WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU FIND AN ELDERLY PERSON WHO COULD USE A HAND WITH SOME HOUSEWORK, GARDENING, OR SHOPPING CHORES. YOU COULD PROBABLY FIND SOMEBODY IN YOUR OWN FAMILY WHO NEEDS A HAND.

i'm 18 I had my cartilage pierced final 12 months whilst i substitute into 17. uncertain the place you're from yet in England the place i'm you would be unable to have it pierced except you're sixteen or over, if no longer it is illegitimate. they are able to look notably yet they are able to additionally be somewhat suggestive: if a youthful lady has too many piercings then she can look greater grown up and in case you look greater grown up then boys are going to think of which you would be prepared to do greater grown up issues. whilst i substitute into 12 I in basic terms had my first lobe piercings achieved and that they harm lots. yet whilst i substitute into 17 I had yet another 8 piercings and that they harm lots much less - it quite does harm once you're youthful. The cartilage piercings have been via some distance the main painful because of the fact the cartilage is a lot thicker than the lobe. a good variety of human beings inquire from me if it hurts and that i continuously say the comparable element: in case you're taking the corner of your thumb's fingernail and place it the place the piercing is going to be and squeeze the ear, you could choose how painful it's going to be in assessment to different factors of the ear, yet to comprehend the way it feels you may could desire to multiply this soreness via a minimum of five. The cartilage is painful and is greater companies to an infection because of the fact of it being lots closer to the hairline. i myself does not propose getting it achieved in case you're in basic terms 12: take excitement in being youthful. in case you desire to work out how notably it may look then you could desire to continuously purchase slightly clip on earring or magnetic earring to apply there and/or seek for fake rings or stick gem stones with lash glue. Btw, have been given mine achieved at Claire's upload-ons with a gun, yet for a cartilage you ought to have a needle fairly as a gun can doubtlessly shatter the cartilage. I positioned on studs as I truthfully have 5 piercings on each ear: one cartilage and four lobe piercings on each: so positioned on studs of extensive to smaller length going up the ear. It harm lots and that i've got a severe soreness threshold in accordance to the pros who pierced my ears so please word. Please think of roughly it heavily: i could propose waiting til you're sixteen. desire it helps :) x
