Make A Difference
Help

Education Packs for
Children / Teachers
It's our aim to
eventually contact schools with the intention of providing
downloadable posters and action / education packs, so that
teachers can introduce the concept of home volunteering to the
children they teach. The packs would feature opportunities that
would be appealing to a child and be graphically designed so as
to be fun and interesting to a child's eye. This will eventually
be incorporated into a 'KidZone' on the website. We're open to
any suggestions on designs to make this happen.

Home Volunteering Groups
How
enthusiastic are you about the home volunteering
concept? Could you organise a group of people to
spend some time in your own home or somebody else's
to participate in some of the volunteering
activities listed on the website? Maybe you could
advertise it as a pyjama party! No, not that type of
pyjama party, but a get together of people
volunteering their time dressed just in their
pyjamas! Here's two organisations that could help
you to start the ball rolling -
Volunteer Meetup Groups and
PledgeBank. Let us know about your group and we'll feature you on
the
Home Volunteering Groups
webpage to gain you even more visibility.

Help From Home Book
The
concept of home volunteering isn't exactly new, but
a book devoted to the subject is - do a web search
if you don't believe us! We are looking for a
volunteer to string together a few words and create
a book or an e-book, focussing on the varied and
numerous home based volunteering opportunities out
there. You'll presumably use this website as your
main source of inspiration! Getting the book
published can be left up to you or to us. Either
way, we're not that interested in making any money
from it - it's the promotion of the home
volunteering concept that's important to us. Here's
two books written in a style that could get the ball
rolling for you -
Do The Right Things! and
The Difference A Day Makes.
