So, I heard about this baseball player, Bryce Harper, and how he’s big on charity. It got me thinking, “I should do something good too.” So, I decided to dive into it and figure out how to give back, just like him.
First off, I started digging around to see what this guy was all about and what causes he supports. I found out he’s involved with quite a few charities, mostly focused on kids and fighting diseases. This was a good starting point.
Next, I started making a list of things I care about. Animals, the environment, helping out the homeless – it all went on the list. Then I looked up some local charities in my area that deal with these causes. I even made a little spreadsheet to keep track of them all, you know, like a real adult.
- Checked their websites.
- Read their mission statements.
- Looked for any volunteer opportunities.
After that, I picked a couple that seemed like a good fit and reached out. I sent some emails, made a few phone calls – just to get a feel for what they do and how I could help. They all seemed pretty enthusiastic about getting some extra hands on deck.
Then came the hard part – actually doing something. I signed up to volunteer at a local animal shelter. I figured, “Hey, I like dogs, this should be fun.” Let me tell you, it was a lot of work – cleaning cages, walking dogs, feeding them. But it felt good, you know? Like I was actually making a difference.
I also decided to donate some money to a charity that helps the homeless. It wasn’t a huge amount, but I figured every little bit helps, right? I even got my friends involved. We did a little fundraiser thing, it was kind of a mess, but we raised some cash, so that’s a win.
The Outcome
Honestly, the whole experience was pretty rewarding. It wasn’t always easy, but it was definitely worth it. I learned a lot about different charities and the kind of work they do. Plus, I got to meet some really cool people who are passionate about making the world a better place. And it all started because I was curious about Bryce Harper’s charity work. I definitely plan to keep doing this kind of stuff in the future. It’s a good feeling. It’s rough and tumble, but you live with it.
