33 GREAT Service Ideas for Families

I came across the blog "Millions of Miles" today and it had 33 GREAT service ideas for families, especially ones with young kids.  Check it out!

Service Scavenger Hunt

This week, have a Service Scavenger Hunt with your family or friends. Divide into groups and race to complete a list of services for people you know in your neighborhood. One service per house. Services could include things like raking leaves, mowing a lawn, taking out trash, sweeping, watering plants, etc. Have fun and feel good while helping those around you.

Donate Blood

With so much need all around us and worldwide, sometimes we find ourselves wanting to help but we aren't sure what to do. For lots of ideas visit lds.org or click here for some of them.
We'll be posting different service and humanitarian ideas weekly.

This week...
DONATE BLOOD.--"Only 38% of Americans are eligible to donate blood and of those only 8% do. That amounts to only about 3 out of every 100 people." Click here to find a donation center near you.

Eligibility requirements-
--You must be healthy
--You must be at least 110 lbs.
--You must be at least 17 (16 in some states if you have parental consent)
