Just Help Out!
By: Alanna, 9 (aka lananana12)
Just Help Out! Is what I learned. It was getting close to the summer when a group of people at school put together a fundraiser. We sold cookies, brownies, and punch to help out animal abuse. In the end we sold $78.56 for the local humane society. I was so impressed with myself that I decided to earn more money and send it to the humane society. I did lemonade stands, chores, and put in my allowance money. I earned $26.42. They highly appreciated it. Then, I decided to help even MORE! I downloaded a form to volunteer at the local humane society or pet store. Unfortunately they didn’t need any more volunteers. But I learned to Just Help Out!

A True Difference
By: Jasmine, 11 (aka ow101)
Well, the other day I was just reading the article on the great pacific garbage patch and I was thinking that we REALLY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE! To start, yesterday on my way to and from school I brought along a wal-mart bag and I picked up the trash that was blowing away, on the ground, and next to garbage cans. I’m not trying to make myself sound like a superhero, but it is true that one person can make a difference, for example, our neighborhood president makes a day once a month where the volunteers go out with trash cans and pick up all the trash! I’m just saying, if you want a better tomorrow today, then get your coat on, get a trash bag, gather some of your best friends, and GO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!!

Birthday For Charity
By: Jordan, 10 (aka heypeeps74)
My sister is one of the most amazing people ever. For 2 years now, on her birthday instead of asking for presents, she donates money to charity. She has everyone bring 5$. Last year, she donated to Make A Wish, and raised over 1500$, because the guests raised 450$, and our grandma and grandpa donated 450$, and so did my parents. Year 1’s theme was Dress like a Movie Star, Party like a Rock Star. Year 2’s theme was Birthday Bowl, or sports. We have done it at the Casper Recreational Center, in Wyoming. My sister’s talent and dedication has helped our city in such a positive way.
