Help a Neighbor

The Fall is a great season to get out and do things. To take in the beauty of all the Autumn colors. And while you are outside, why not help a neighbor? Because today is also Make a Difference Day!


Initiated in 1990, and celebrate on the fourth Saturday in October, this is a national day devoted to helping others by doing volunteer work in the community. The activity can be almost anything. Millions of Americans participate in community improvement projects. It takes the form of cleanup, fixup, painting, and repair in poorer neighborhoods, parks and municipal facilities. It doesn't matter what project you take on. It doesn't matter whether you help a non-profit organization, the community, your town, nursing home, a church, a food kitchen, or any other group in need. What matters is that you participate. Make a commitment to help others for just one day.

Make a difference on Make a Difference Day!
