  • Recycle (and Buy Recycled Products)
    The success of recycling depends on several things, including efficient collection of recyclable materials, and a continuous demand for those materials to produce recycled products. Consumers play a key role in ensuring that this recycling loop remains strong. Here's how to help.
  • Reduce the Toxicity of Your Garbage
    Household hazardous waste poses a serious health threat to every man, woman, and child in the United States. Safe, responsible use, handling, and disposal of hazardous substances and switching to nontoxic alternatives can help protect people and the environment.
  • Organize a Used Clothing Donation Drive
    Find out how to donate clothing or organize a clothes donation drive. Links provided to pick-up instructions and drop-off collection locations for The Salvation Army and Goodwill
  • Improve Community Services in Impoverished Areas
    Basic community services such as health care, education and clean water are things many of us take for granted, but in impoverished areas, people often have to go without. These services require a working infrastructure of solid buildings and equipment — which simply don't exist in some communities, or have fallen into disrepair. By helping to build and repair local buildings and equipment, you can help bring critical community services to people who sorely need them.
  • Recognize Symptoms of Depression and Encourage Treatment
    If you notice someone who is exhibiting symptoms of depression, ask the person how he is feeling and explain why you are concerned. Realize that you cannot diagnose the problem or offer treatment options, but you can be part of a support system. Tell the person that he is valued and deserves to feel better. Listen without passing judgment. Recommend that he discuss depression with his doctor and offer to accompany him to the first appointment. It may not be the easiest conversation you'll ever have, but it might be one of the most worthy. And whether or not the person chooses to take your advice, keep checking-in with him on a regular basis and extending invitations to partake in social activities so that he will feel he belongs.
