^ Kids In Action
The Greensheet and VOLUNTEER HOUSTON collaborate to bring you the following
information on volunteer opportunities for young people.
NEEDY CHILDREN will benefit from a back-to-school clothing drive spearheaded by a social
service agency supported by a coalition of southwest Houston churches. Over 4000
youngsters are expected to be served by the drive. On the morning of Saturday, July 28,
massive amounts of donated clothing will be sorted and sized at a Rellaire area facility.
Families will come by on the following Saturday (August 4) to find clothes for their
youngsters, and volunteers will also be needed at that time to help with the distribution.
Please call now if you can help out on either or both of the dates involved. Minimum age: 14,
( none if accompanied by an adult.
SPREAD SOME CHEER by making greeting cards for an agency that sponsors visits to
' institutional shut-ins in connection with holidays. The next visits will take place early in
l September, in honor of Grandparents Day. Having handmade greeting cards to share with the
persons visited will make the occasion all the more special for everyone involved. You can
* make the cards at home and deliver or mail them at your convenience to the agency's Galleria
I area office. There's no minimum age involved, and this can be a great project for individual
volunteers, families, or organized groups.
CREATE BLANKETS for infants and small children. An all-volunteer organization called Project
Linus is looking for persons willing to make blankets for kids in distressed situations,
particularly pediatric cancer patients. The blankets may be sewn, woven, crocheted, knitted,
or quilted, and size doesn't matter. You can do the work at home and on your own schedule. No
minimum age is involved.
DIRTY DOGS become clean, presentable, and more likely to be adopted thanks to caring
volunteers who bathe and groom them at an animal shelter in Alvin. If you can perform this
simple but valuable service on either a regular or occasional basis, consider helping these
pooches put their best (and cleanest) paws forward toward becoming their future owners'
cherished pets. The shelter is open weekdays and Saturdays, generally from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Unaccompanied volunteers should be at least 17 years of age, but there's no minimum age for
a young person accompanied by a parent volunteer.
TURN OVER A NEW LEAF by helping tend a community garden that is used to produce
vegetables for organizations serving the needy. The sponsoring agency will teach you all you
need to know to seed, weed, and feed a garden successfully. Your commitment can be short-
term or ongoing, and the hours are very flexible. There are community garden sites
throughout Houston from which to choose. If you're able to do the work, there's no minimum
age requirement.
FOR SELF-STARTERS: Clean out your attic and give clothes, used appliances, books, and
knickknacks to an organization like Goodwill or the Salvation Army.
DID YOU KNOW that the state with the highest rates of volunteerism is Utah, with 44.2% of the
population of Utah volunteering last year. The state with the lowest rate was New York, with
19% of its population volunteering last year.
