fJ Kids In Action
The Greensheet and VOLUNTEER HOUSTON collaborate to bring you the following
information on volunteer opportunities for young people.
RAIN OR SHINE, you're sure to enjoy participating in the annual "Texas Adopt-a-Beach Fall
Cleanup" taking place Saturday, September 24 all along the Texas Gulf Coast. Teaming up
with other volunteer "beach buddies", you can help remove debris that spoils the appearance
of our shoreline and poses hazards to marine wildlife. (Some of the debris will be recycled to
fund other environmental improvement projects.) Call now to reserve a place for yourself on
the beach of your choice. There is no minimum age if accompanied by an adult; otherwise the
minimum age is 15.
i FIGHT HUNGER by becoming a volunteer at the Houston Food Bank, which has moved its mair
location to east of downtown Houston. This warehouse-style facility works with social service
' agencies to serve the poor throughout greater Houston. Available volunteer assignments
l include sorting and sacking food to be distributed to needy families, labeling food donations,
or assisting with office work. Minimum age varies according to the assignment, but some jobs
* can be done by volunteers as young as 8. The Food Bank is open for business on weekdays
I and Saturdays.
^ CELEBRATE GRANDPARENTS DAY one day early by joining with other volunteers in a visit to
local nursing homes on Saturday, September 10. If you have some time available that
• morning, plan on coming to any of three meeting places (in Katy, Cypress, or the Greenway
Plaza area) and teaming up with other volunteers to visit one of several nearby facilities.
• You'll be given handmade greeting cards and other goodies to share with the persons you
Q visit. There's no minimum age requirement involved as long as each volunteer's
transportation is provided for.
TAKE A STEP FORWARD by volunteering at this year's Katy area "Memory Walk" on September
# 11. The walk is a major annual fundraiser in the campaign to provide services to families
^ impacted by Alzheimer's disease and to eventually eradicate the disease altogether.
* Volunteers will be needed that morning to help set up, clean up, sign walkers in, oversee a
0 variety of activities, and serve food. In return for their time, volunteers will be accorded free
^ refreshments and commemorative tee-shirts. Although the minimum age for persons
volunteering by themselves is 18, high-schoolers of any age are cordially welcome if
accompanied by an adult or volunteering as part of an organized youth group.
SPREAD SOME CHEER by sharing your hobby this summer with a small group of adults with
mental retardation at a learning center in northwest Houston. Whether your interest is
sewing, cooking, scrapbooking, or a similar leisure pursuit, demonstrating your craft and
chatting with the residents about it can help broaden their personal interests and nurture
their socialization skills. Visits can be scheduled for weekdays on a one-time or occasional
basis. The minimum age for volunteers is 12.
FOR SELF-STARTERS: Collect used magazines and take them to the Veterans Administration
Hospital. The vets there always appreciate good reading material that helps take their minds
off their problems.
DID YOU KNOW that a strong record of volunteering can play a significant role in helping you *
get scholarships for college? •
