Little Secret 366 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I did when I was younger. I used to collect food and clothing to help poor families. Unfortunately, I had to stop because I started to study all day. I'm planning to go back when I'm less busy with college and all. Do you ever participate in charity work? If not, would you like to try someday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEWER RAT 10,617 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I prefer using the term philanthropic, most people do charity to feel good about themselves rather than out of care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

...... 3,962 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 that's my day "job" i work with the homeless in London 5 days a week. Full time voluntary to build my resume/training/hours for potential Masters (in Social Work) at some point in the near future...but I chose this particular centre over paid options in NYC, because it was more hands on...and London really really needs more people involved w/ the homeless...it's ooc atm.I was also a Special Olympics volunteer player/assistant (football) as a teen for 5 years... and i've traveled to different parts of Africa for 3 month long services about 4 times...In high school i also worked at a food kitchen in Boston on Saturdays....and volunteered to work at many of the blood drives at my school and in the area (since i'm anemic and nobody wants my blood usually -_- ) My parents always kept me and my siblings very involved in voluntary work...and it stuck i guess.

shineerox 2,063 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 My friends and I were in charge of our school's volunteer club and we did soup kitchens, collected clothes for the poor, picked up trash around the school, etc.... We actually enjoyed it, but ever since we all split into different high schools, we never really got the chance to do it again. My high school's Key Club isn't really that great and I have no time these days to run a club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
