description: Perhaps now more than ever, our world needs the energy and commitment of volunteers who sincerely believe that they can make a difference. This book is designed to help anyone who wants to change the world around them but isn’t sure how to go about it. First, a series of questions will help you organize your thoughts and figure out where your priorities lie. A long list of ideas for projects and lifestyle changes is offered, including several options for activism via the Internet, as well as contact information for national and international nonprofit organizations. Although primarily geared toward adults, the chatty tone in which the book is written makes it suitable for teenagers as well. It’s a valuable tool for educators, religious leaders, Scoutmasters, community officials, and others who need a resource for planning public service projects, as well as individuals who really want to help. The content should appeal to people from all walks of life, as it stresses that social problems transcend all racial, religious, and national barriers.
