Volunteering together!

Hello again!

Here is a very interesting story about volunteering. It involves a 3-year-old girl and her 7-year-old brother and their grandma, they are not the ones who need help, they are actually volunteers. This story will show you that volunteering is for everyone, no matter your age, you can always help and you can do it with the rest of your family. If you would like to find out more go HERE.

Learn, Improve, Volunteer, Explore!

Hello everyone!
 
There are a couple problems that I would like to solve in my home country Serbia and in my home town, but I would like to start with the problem that I think could be crucial to many others. The problem that I want to focus on is that young people don't know all the things that they can do in the community.
Teenagers spend most of their time on Internet, and the reason for that is that they don't know what activities are there for them in a community to do, they don't know where they can volunteer, they don't know where to look for help and support if they want to start a campaign and most of them don't even know how to start a campaign. 
If we start solving this program our community would be much better. People would stop spending so much time on the Internet and instead they would start helping not only other  people but the community as well.
 By solving this problem, many other problems will be solved. If teenagers knew about all the things that they can do in a community they could clean the river in town, help poor people, even if they did little things like helping little kids with their homework they would be doing something not only for the community and other people, but also for themselves.
