Kids on volunteering

Joplin, 6th grade, Adaire, 2025-2026


By Lena, Alexander Adaire Fit Fish | I would volunteer for planting trees because whenever I go to a park in Philly, I always see dead trees and plants, and the wildlife can’t go anywhere to nest or live. I have volunteered in the past for Girl Scouts. We went to a senior home and sang Christmas carols, gave out cookies, and played card games with the seniors. It made me feel good because some of the people there were really old and didn’t have any other family or friends. They were happy to see us.
