🙌 Volunteer 4 Hours/Week in 4 Weeks
💡 The Goal: Take meaningful local action by donating your time, skills, or energy to a cause you care about — and create real impact.
✅ STEP 1: Choose Where You’ll Make a Difference
Find a cause that aligns with your values and skills:
- 🏫 Education or youth mentoring
- 🧓 Elder support or social care
- 🗳️ Voter education or civic engagement
- 🥫 Food banks or community gardens
- 🕊️ Peace, environment, or human rights work
Tactic: Google local NGOs or community centers, or ask in local Facebook/WhatsApp groups.
✅ STEP 2: Commit to 4 Hours a Week
Block time in your calendar just like you would for work or exercise:
- 📅 1 hour, 4x a week — or 2 hours, 2x a week
- 📍 Choose a consistent day and place (on-site or remote)
Tactic: Set a weekly reminder and treat it as a non-negotiable appointment.
✅ STEP 3: Track, Reflect, and Expand
Make your impact visible and meaningful:
- 📝 Keep a simple log: what you did, who you helped, how you felt
- 💬 Share your story with 1–2 people per week
- 🌱 Reflect on how you can continue or grow after the 4 weeks
Tactic: Post a weekly update to inspire others to join in.
