Looking for a new way to raise money for charity? Has your school run out of clever and fun ideas? Don't give up. There are several ways to help your favorite charity.
How about organizing a car wash? Everybody who has a car sooner or later washes it or has it washed. So why don't you and your classmates do the job? The money the car owners pay for having their cars washed will go towards your charity. When we did it last month, we had a surprising
time! At first, some of us were worried about getting wet or dirty and it's true. But we also had fun,and at the end of the day it was really worth(值得) it!
On the other hand, if you don't feel like getting wet or messy, but have some musical talent, __▲__ Street musicians can make a lot of money, and so can you if you've got the talent and courage it takes to play in front of the audience(听众). You just need to find a suitable place, practice for a few hours with your friends first, and give it a try!
I hope the above ideas have helped you a bit, and if you've got any other great advice, we would love to hear it and practice it, too. Good luck!

As a member of the Lions, she has been helping others for many years. She goes to the old people's home twice a month to help the old people cut hair, wash clothes and do some cleaning. Besides, on rainy days she offers people umbrellas or raincoats for free.
I'm deeply moved by her story. I'm going to start with small things around me. I plan to give away books and clothes to children in poor villages. What's more, I'll ask my parents and more friends to join me.
A small action can make a big difference. Let's help those who need help!

Dear Li Hua,
How was this month? I have had a great time volunteering in a children's hospital. I helped cheer up a boy who lost his right leg in a traffic accident. I played games with him and I even acted as some animals to make him happy.Did you volunteer somewhere? What did you do? What was your feeling? Do you have some advice about volunteering?
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Yours,
Jim

Happy to get your letter. It's kind of you to cheer up someone in need.
I also did some volunteer work.
I volunteered in an old people's home with my best friend Li Lei. We
helped old people fold the clothes, make the bed, sweep the floor and so
on. Although it was tiring, we felt happy.
In fact, there are many other things students could do as a volunteer.

For example, we could put up signs asking people to care for our earth.
And it's a great idea that we could also join an animal club to help protect
the animals in danger. On weekends, why not go to the hospital to cheer
up the sick kids?
Being a volunteer helps to develop our independence and teaches us how to
love others. It's good for our development. Let's offer help to those in need!
