1. go to the phone book, and find organizations that deal with homelessness in your community. if you can't figure the phone book out, then see your librarian. \n\n2. call those organizations or visit them and get resource lists and ALSO do an interview or two. ask them for statistics and answers and reasons. \n\n3. after all this, i'd get on my computer, and google "homelessness" and read several of the pages that come up, to get a good idea on what's going on out there. maybe even use some of those websites as my sources. \n\n4. after taking notes and compiling my sources, and following the steps my teacher has explained to me about writing a research paper, i'd make sure to get a tutor or someone good at grammar and spelling to look over my paper and I'D FOLLOW ALL THEIR ADVICE because my writing skills, based on this question, are atrocious.

Organize a group of people together to feed the homeless that are in the street. There is such a homeless problem in California and not enough shelters to help all of the homeless. There are a few different people/groups of people I have witnessed that have made it their business to make hundreds of sandwiches a day and pass them out to the homeless. There was a lady in Los Angeles who would cook great healthy homemade soups and drive around to the different spots where she knew the homeless people would gather and she made sure they had something good to eat as regularly as possible. But sometimes people can't do that on such a grand scale and it still makes a big difference on a smaller scale sometimes. Just giving something to a homeless person - a warmed plate of your leftovers from dinner perhaps - is a great thing.\n\nWalk up to a homeless woman who is minding her own business, not begging off of anybody, and give her 10% of your weekly income. I met a man one time who did that because he no longer attended church and it was his form of paying tithes. See how big that woman's smile gets. Depending on what you make, you might be able to divide that among 10 homeless women and still get great, surprised, thankful, almost wondrous expressions of happiness.\n\nVolunteer to mentor or assist a homeless person who is not totally beyond help. There are plenty of homeless people out there who look beyond help. Homelessness is a battle of hopelessness. The longer a time a person remains homeless, the more hopeless they feel about everything. People who have been homeless for more than a year become "The Chronic Homeless" and their chances for being able to escape the confines of homelessnes are statistically decreased. Sometimes people just need an address for employment opportunities, a contact phone number for messages, encouragement, food, a safe place to store clothing and personal belongings. When homeless people don't have at least these meager advantages, it can be intensely difficult to make it back into a more normal type of living environment.\n\nBecome a mentor or a Big Brother.\n\nVolunteer to tutor children or speak to children to motivate them to study well so they can become a graphic designer or whatever they want to achieve.\n\nDonate some of your graphic design services or discount as a donation to help non-profit charities advertise events that can help them achieve their goals.\n\nCounty hospitals often welcome volunteer administrative help.\n\n(Just a few ideas - I could go on forever with this. So many worthy causes out there need volunteeristic people.)

Here's a thought... WRITE YOUR OWN PAPER... It's part of the learning process... Maybe instead of wasting time to find papers, write one... You'd get more out of it...

It would be an interesting experience for me. I would do it, not only for the money. It would teach me to understand a part of our society that is often ignored. Then, I will donate the money to an organization that helps homeless people.

I think you should do an article on how school is important in the "real world", for example...why learning to spell "magazine" and "quickly" may be important if you plan on working for a real magazine some day.\n\nThe articles you write now will be the tear sheets you submit for articles you submit to "real" magazines and to potential colleges!\n\nOther than that..I think an article on peer pressure could be interesting.

DONT SEND MONEY. Send supplies to refuge camps. Blankets and food is more important right now than school supplies. Donations or blanket drives could help them a lot.\n\nGood luck. I can tell you really care about the issue and i hope that you can help them. Lord knows they need it.

Volunteer.  I bet your local library or hospital would love to have someone with your credentials to read to children.

How about something about what it would be like if every city or town took care of their own?  \n\nIt would be a "what if" paper and you could let your imagination go with it.\n\nWhat if churches took collections to help the poor, hungry, homeless ect and not collect money to build a new million dollar church for themselves?\n\nWhat if school children sold candy bars etc to make money to help the needy in their own town and not to earn prizes for themselves?\n\nWhat if we took care of our own first before we took care of the rest of the world?  \n\nWhat should towns and / or cities do when they have citizens who have more money than most?  Should they give more?  \n\nAnyway, it's something to think about? and it will leave the competition graders with something different to think about also.

I would cite examples that people in your school would agree with such as local students raising money for charity or doing volunteer work.\n\nIf you could look through your school newspaper for examples or your local paper, that would make a big impression.

A good sutitle for your report would be, Problems In Society and you should write about problems in our society and how more youth and becoming homeless and what causes. Many people judge homeless people and think they are only homeless because they dropped out of school or some other dumb reason. The truth is that many youth just have no family or were abused in some way so they turned to the streets. Keep this in mind when writing your report.\n\n bye
