Volunteering Brings You Together for “Good”

Doing good for others is a great way to spend time together and bring your family closer during the holidays. Volunteering also can help young people learn kindness and compassion.

Here are some activities you can do together:

• Have each family member pick out a toy. Wrap the toys together and drop them in a collection box.
• Honor loved ones you miss during the holiday season by giving to their favorite charity. Use the time to talk about old memories, and create new ones.
• Invite neighbors to join your family at a holiday concert.
• Decorate some wreaths together and deliver them to community organizations.
• Call your local senior center to ask how your family could help with crafts or join in the center’s holiday sing-along.
