There are many non-profit organizations in the community, such as local food banks and shelters, that are always in need of donations. Get your community involved by collecting spare change, food donations, bottle returns, or clothing for an organization of choice. You can also plan a group sorting event and partner with an organization to collect their donations at the end of the day. This idea will not only help local organizations, but will also help to build a sense of mattering and connection amongst residents.
