n
nVolunteeringnis amazing and often life-changing, but volunteering as a family cannbe full-out fun. We are urged to gather even extended family, such asngrandparents and cousins, to clean up a park or make cards fornchildren in the hospital or…well, there are thousands of worthwhilenthings to do. n

n
n
nAccordingnto the GenerationOn website, it’s tough to send much-needed suppliesnto the Philippines right now because roads and airports have beenndestroyed. Instead, we can help by raising money and then sending onenbig donation to an organization that is already there in thenPhilippines, helping people. n

n
n
nChecknthe Philippines Typhoon page for instructions about creating anDimes for Disaster project.n The three recommended charities, which give 90% of its donationsndirectly to the people in need, are Care, Save the Children, andnUNICEF. n
