Maybe they can help with getting food stamps or some other assistance. \nAlso, there's some charities that might help, Catholic Charities, United Way, and The Red Cross. In my town, the local Baptist Association helps people out with money or clothes. If I think of more I'll add them later.

I think in your own community. Food banks and Christmas toys for the underprivileged kids. Stuff like that!

Almost Every new poster  starts out asking that, and the answers are quite mean usually. I'm poor too and know it's hard. Churches have helped me best when I was desperate. Good Luck. I'll pray for you okay buddy?

There are many government grants published on a regular basis for just this very kind of thing. You need to find someone experienced in searching for them and writing grant proposals to donate their time and efforts to your cause.\n\nIn the meantime, talk to the county you're in about programs they have.  Write letters to large corporations like Wal-Mart and other industries in neighboring areas.  They usually have budgets set aside for community activism.

There are a couple of ways. \nwww.helpyourcommunity.org\nwww.idealist.org\n\nIf nothing else google the word volunteer and you should be able to find what you are looking for. Also, check into Boys and Girls club in your area and you could find that they have needs or know of some needs that would fill what you are looking for.

Find out what services are offered through your local agencies (state, federal, local, religious, private) and see if you can volunteer as a helper at some level.  This will both give you a network of contacts within the community as well as an idea what services aren't provided in your area.\nIf the service you want to provide ISN'T anywhere near you, then try contacting a remote location by phone or email and see what they went through to set their business up.  Typically these organizations are more than happy to talk about how to provide help to others...it's what they do!

this is wonderful of you but there are many agencies a person can contact locally for assistance such as Marine Corps League, Salvation Army, Churches, Welfare Agencies, local radio stations, etc. so you might want to consider doing something for the local people. thanks and a " tip of my hat to you.

If you really want to give something back to your old neighborhood, check with the local hospital there.  There are usually all kinds of worthwhile places within the organization that could put donations to good use.  (To the children's ward, cancer center, a memorial contribution, etc).  Also I would check into a homeless shelter or somewhere in need of donations to feed the needy, or perhaps even the animal shelter.  And of course, there's the church.  Just put your heart into it and see what has touched your life and go with it.  And good luck to you!  You're very thoughtful.

If you are serious about this, I will give you all the information available. I volunteer in a food pantry that has a clothing closet. I volunteer in the CC part. You could contact Middleton Outreach Ministry it's in Middleton, WI speak to Joan Demming. I will leave the web page for you.\n\nI have gone and held toilettry drives, clothing drives, I made over 250 ski caps last year for the homeless men and women that sit in the Capitol. And I am only one person. Just think what a few of your friends could do.
