Sharing Your Gifts & Being a Mentor

There are so many ways you can make a positive impact in your community, but sometimes it’s hard to pick where to start. Sure, everyone can think of simple tasks people need to be done or items that need to be donated, but where should you start?

We are here with some ideas that you are passionate about, directing you to a platform where you can feel good about giving back.

It’s the Small Things

Most people aren’t able to put in as much effort and time as they would like to, but that’s no issue. The small things add up, and no matter how much time you put in, all that matters is that you choose to help, Juzt Because.

Here are some options for you if you have less time to give:

Animal Shelters

This one comes with bonus stress relief! Animal shelters can always use the help, especially during adoption drives. A place like an animal shelter is a great place to volunteer that doesn’t have to be a full-time commitment.

Retirement Homes

Bingo night anyone!? Volunteering at a retirement home can be a fun and heartwarming way to make a positive impact. If you like socializing and hearing stories from others, assisting the elderly may be a great fit for you. This can be an occasional gig or something that becomes your new calling. You never know where a little giving can take you.

Donate Clothes

Donating good condition clothing does not take much time and can make such a drastic change in the life of the receiver. A lot of times we take things like clothing for granted, with closets full of clothes we never wear. You may think you only have time to make a small difference, but what is small to you may be HUGE to another.

Clean Up The Planet

If you don’t have a lot of free time, joining in on a community cleanup can be rewarding. A good part about assisting with a community clean-up is that you’ll be able to see in real-time the effect you are having! As you clean up the streets, parks, or beaches, you can leave knowing you made a positive impact on your community and the planet.

Think Positive

Your community could be close-knit or most of the community may not know anyone else’s name. No matter how well you know the members of your community, you can be sure we all have one thing in common… We’re all human, and humans have emotions.

Keeping a positive attitude and acting kind to your neighbor matters a lot more than you may think. I’m sure all of us can remember at least one neighbor we’ve had that just always seemed to brighten the mood. You don’t have to be pulling cats out of trees to be a neighborhood hero! Make people’s days easier when you can, Juzt Because.

Lift Up Future Leaders

The children of today will grow to be the future leaders of our world. Teach them how to make a positive impact by getting your kids involved in the community. Bringing your kids along to a food drive and helping them prepare and give out aid, can make a serious impact on how that child understands the world.

Volunteer at your Local Food Pantry

Food drives and food pantries are some of the most noble causes in any community. Unfortunately, there are always hungry people in need, and therefore there are always food pantries that are in need of a hand. There are many misconceptions and myths about food pantries that seeing one for yourself might give you a whole new perspective.

Making an Impact, Juzt Because

There are countless ways to make a positive impact on your community, all that matters is that you cared enough to try! Whether you want to help or you need a hand, Juzt Because Inc. is here to assist. We’ve got many different stories of those we have helped, and we will continue to offer a hand to lift those up in need, Juzt Because.
