Hello! My name is Sydney Swearengin and I’m in sixth grade at Bullard TALENT. I’ve been volunteering since I started school this year, and I think you should too. This Martin Luther King Day, we are trying to have the largest service day in Fresno history, so we’re asking you to volunteer. It’s important to volunteer because it can help turn Fresno around. Volunteering helps get things done without the city having to spend money to get the task done. It can also help clean up our city. Here are some volunteering ideas that you can do:
- Clean up a park
- Help at an animal shelter
- Plant Trees
- Clean up a school
- Collect items to donate to a homeless shelter
- Have a food drive
- Help at an office
Over my Christmas break, I went and helped at City Hall. At first I was nervous, but I actually had a lot of fun! Right now, I’m volunteering at the HandsOn Central California building. They asked me to work on this blog for them. So if you want to volunteer, you can look on the Serve Fresno website for volunteer opportunities. Please come and volunteer on Martin Luther King Day this year!
