EXAMPLE

Jada was worried about students being bullied at her school. She conducted a survey to see how students and staff felt. After researching how to help students who are bullied, she started a kindness wall, where kids can post positive quotes, anonymous compliments, and more on post its, and she started a 'BULLY BOX' where students can simply drop a note if they see someone acting like a bully toward another student. She also started a program for people to sign up to receive weekly positive text messages. Then she started a website where people can go for inspiration, resources, and ways to get help.

EXAMPLE

Brandon's new neighbor is deaf. Brandon learned sign language online then offered a sign language class before and after school once a week for students and staff.

EXAMPLE

Alex loved to draw and loved animals. He created a comic book about animals and created stories about their adventures at a local animal shelter. He sold copies of the comic book and all proceeds went to the shelter. He also featured information about adopting pets in his comic book in hopes that families will consider saving the shelter animals.

EXAMPLE

Niyasia liked making headbands and hair bows. She researched new

styles and products and created her own YouTube channel showing

others how to make their own. Then she started her own online store

selling her products, and all profits went to a local charity.

Xavier hated seeing all the graffiti on the school playground. He researched removing spray paint and permanent marker and developed his own formulas to test on the school playground. Then he came up with ideas to prevent future graffiti and developed a presentation for his school principal and the Board of Education. Xavier created a website to share his graffiti removal formula and his ideas with other schools who share this playground problem.

Ashanti's grandmother was stranded home alone during Hurricane Sandy, and Ashanti didn't want anyone's grandparent to be in that position ever again. She created an emergency binder for senior citizens in her city. The binder included maps to local shelters, emergency phone numbers, limited supplies, information about how to act in various emergency situations, and more. The city even published the contents of Ashanti's binder on their website.
