Environmental – There are many things youth can do to help protect and preserve the environment, you can: 1) introduce a Save the Environment Campaign, 2) Clean parks & gardens, 3) Make small changes in your daily habits that will have a positive impact on the natural world, for example, don’t litter! 4)  Volunteer your time.

Animals – Devote some of your time to help the lives of animals. Animals are very dear to our hearts, and it saddens us whenever we learn of any cruelty, exploitation, and abuse toward them. We want to help them as much as we can!

Disaster  – Disaster services volunteers are on the scene of both natural and man-made disasters providing emergency assistance in a variety of ways to families who have been temporarily or permanently displaced from their homes.

Disabilities – Volunteers can help address issues such as accessibility, inclusion, health and wellness, quality of life, and transportation. We have even helped to build ramps for disabled citizens to leave their homes without assistance!

School Improvement – Whether it’s tutoring kids or beautifying the school grounds, there is much work to be done in the area of school improvement.  Most schools have a school improvement plan and teens can find out how they can volunteer their time to help make a difference.

Understanding Intergenerational Concerns – Intergenerational programs are activities that increase cooperation, interaction, or exchange between any two generations. These programs purposefully bring together people of different age groups in ongoing, mutually beneficial, planned activities, designed to achieve successful  goals. Intergenerational programs provide children, youth and older adults an opportunity to volunteer while contributing meaningfully to society.

Prevention  - Prevention is the process which provides people with the resources necessary to confront stressful life conditions and avoid behaviors which could result in negative, physical, psychological, or social outcomes. Teens are a VOICE and can tackle these concerns through their volunteer efforts in the community.
