Helping Your Community

Community service means doing things to help people in your neighbourhood without being paid. It can be big or small — from organising a clean-up day to helping an elderly neighbour carry groceries. Serving others makes our communities stronger.

Example

Community Service Ideas

Organise a clean-up day at your school or local park. Collect food or clothing for families in need. Visit a home for the elderly and spend time talking to them. Help younger learners with reading during break time.

Note

Remember

You are never too young to make a difference. Even small acts of kindness — like helping a classmate or picking up litter — are forms of community service.
