Donate. It doesn’t always have to be money. You can donate blood to organizations like the Red Cross.

Help the next generation. Tutor kids. Organizations like Reading Partners match you with kindergarten through fourth-grade students who are behind in reading. Inspire girls to be healthy through coaching volunteer opportunities with organizations like Girls on the Run.

Exercise your right to free speech. Peacefully protest. Create a group, or join one that is about the social issues you care about. And call your representatives to let your voice be heard.

Stay informed. Think about the impact you have when you buy clothes or throw away recyclables.

If you care about an issue, you can do something about it.
