“I am only one. But still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. I will not refuse to do the something I can do.” –Hellen Keller
Here’s some stuff you can do.
- Start a letter writing campaign.
- Invite speakers who support causes you’re interested in
- Show a video to help educate your TYG
- Run a “Shul In” or a whole event dedicated to your project
- Plan a simulation program
- Make your social action project coincide with a religious holiday to get your whole temple involved (Passover, a holiday of freedom, talk about slavery. Tu B’shevat, deal with environmental issues, etc.
- Hold an –athon (walkathon, bowlathon)
- Have fundraisers (bake sales, car washes, etc.)
- Start long term involvement with a local organization like an old age home, hospital, or rehab center.
- Create outlines of advocacy letters to give out at services. If you do the congregants work for them, they’re more likely to send the letter.
- Get involved with Social Action committees at your temple. Make sure the adults know that your TYG is committed to Social Action
- Make bringing can food goods a part of the cost of a regular event
- Sign people up for RAC news!
BE CREATIVE. You have the potential to do a world of good!
