Megan was volunteer of the week, it's YOUR turn

As I was checking my e-mail I came across of this incredible story. Megan is a volunteer for The Salvation Army and she spends her days managing senior programs. Because of her, and her dedication, many senior citizens have their days filled with activities and joy. She is one incredible person and I believe that Megan is a role model for all teenagers. Volunteer somewhere, make the difference, this is the result.

Stand up! Speak up! Be at the TOP!

I would like to start with and example from my school to show you real situation in my country. I go to High school with tradition of over 100 years and very high reputation.
High school students association of Bosnia and Herzegovina reached out to me via Youth Council of my city. They asked me to create a Local team in my school. School has over 1500 students in total. After two weeks we had 10 members so we had minimum requirements for becoming a Local team. Reason for not many kids joining is that nobody wanted to do volunteering activities. This has to change and that is why I joined this program. I am personally concerned with this issue because it is happening in my school.
I would use social media to show young people that there is so many benefits in volunteering for the benefit of the community.
 Students donating blood,
one example of what needs to be done more often.
One activity is nice, with your help we will have much more.
