Volunteering

    During counseling guidance we talk a lot about the 6 pillars of character throughout the year.  So at the end of the year, we talked about how we need to help others to be "a person of character"  We saw some short videos of volunteering and came up with ideas on where they can volunteer and how they can help others.  They came up with quite a few.  Here are some of them:


Send food to the hungry
Send money to charity
Collect money for cancer
Give money to the poor
Volunteer at a hospital
Help people with groceries
Volunteer at a pet area
Pick up litter
Pick up things that have fallen
Grow plants and give it away
Help at a petting zoo
Volunteer at a grocery store
Donate to your school
Give stuff away
Build houses for people who need them
Mow for neighbors
Support the military
Send military care packages


   They had a lot of great ideas!  I found the videos on you tube.  Here are the links:
