I’ve volunteered for alot of things, started as a kid at the Community Hospital. Then when my kids started school I helped there alot for years.
I then started a fundraiser to build a skate park here in my town for my son because i was tired of him and his friends being harrassed. We did it in a few months!
Now I work with a homeless group here in my area and fundraise for them. And I’m working on a photography project to raise awareness and funds for them.
It feels great to be a part of the solution and help other people out.
Find something you feel strongly about and go for it. There’s ALOT of groups in our country that need help.

How I did it: I decided to let my hair grow out to finally do this after wanting them forever. I posted an ad for someone to help me get them started.Took alot of hours to get them started and was lucky that I found someone who does them at a decent price and doesn't use waxes or anything unnatural which was important to me. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Dedication to learning and practicing every day. Take classes, watch dvd's in my spare time, take lessons and read everything I can find about photography! Networking with others who are professionals to learn from them. I practice all types of photography and learned from my mistakes. Find a mentor. Read how I did it…
I did this when I was a teenager. My room wasn’t black but I had alot of grafitti artist friends and it started out with one person writing a simple signature to having the entire room covered in art, grafitti, doodles, etc from the walls, ceiling, closet doors…
It looked soo awesome! And everyone who walked in there loved it!
I say DO IT!
and yes, keep different colour sharpies handy!
It’s important to know your blood type so I hope you do find out soon.
If you donate blood I believe you can find out that way, plus you’ll be helping by donating.
