FAMILY & COMMUNITY | 5 MIN READ

A community is an important factor for an individual’s growth but sometimes we need to give back to our community as well. Here are small ways on how you can help your community. Even if you’re just a normal resident in your community, you can still have great contribution.

1. Be a part of the clean and green drive

Pollution is a common problem in communities that’s why clean up drives are a common community project. If your community is having one, you can sign up and be a part of it. Or you can organize by coordinating with community leaders. Or you can just help by cleaning your space and not throwing your trash anywhere. If you can’t help with the solution, at least don’t be a part of the problem.

2. Help the local animal shelter

You can be a weekly volunteer in taking care of the rescued pets in your local animal shelter. You can help in petting and feeding the pets or you can also help in finding the pets a new and loving home.

3. Organize events for different age groups

You can be an organizer of events for different age groups in your community. Organize a sports clinic for the youth or a senior’s night for the elderly. This will help them grow and be active in the community.

4. Help with peace and order

A community’s peace and order is a vital factor. You can help in maintaining it by volunteering in doing rounds in streets or you can come up with solutions that will be help in keeping the peace and order.

5. Held a food drive

You can held a food drive in your community along with fellow neighbors wherein you can either collect canned goods or have a soup kitchen to feed those who are in need.

Contributing to the community shouldn’t be hard. So take a step forward and be a great help to your community.
