Day Twenty & Twenty One- How Can You Help?

Let me count the ways...
There are so many!  Your neighborhood is the place you likely spend most of your time in.  Many, since Covid, work from home so they don't even leave their communities for work!  It sounds like an excellent place to "give back".  
Just look around as you take a walk or are driving to the grocery store... what can you do?  How can you help? I can guarantee you there are already groups formed with meetings and likely emails that have plenty of ways you can help the community. 
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Beautification.  Food pantries. Churches with Outreach programs.  Legal & Government change. Donate Blood. Buy local. Donate money to a local fund-raiser. Tutor students at the local schools.  Donate goods to homeless shelters and food banks. Coach a Youth sports team. Volunteer at the library.  Help out at the Voting Booths.... SO MANY OPTIONS!!
What are areas you love to serve?  What are passions you have that you could teach others?  What age group do you love working with?  Where do you find happiness? Inside or outside?
Go where it makes you happy.  Give what brings you joy.

You could focus just on your own block.  Every little bit helps.  Every small act of kindness counts. 
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Mow a neighbor's lawn. Pull their garbage cans to and from the curb. pick up groceries. Share produce from your garden. Prepare a meal.  Leave a gift card.  Leave a bottle of water or a snack for the postal workers, the garbage men, the package delivery folks- it gets hot out there!  
Drop some sneaky thank you cards or even include a gift card for librarians, teachers, nurses, bus drivers, volunteers...
Make gift baskets for the local homeless, the fire department, the police department, nurses stations, librarians, toll booth workers, elderly neighbors, 

The options are endless!  It doesn't have to be perfect.  It doesn't have to be grand... it just needs to be done.  Please, take some time and a little bit of effort to show others that you care.  It will be returned to you TEN-FOLD.
