Volunteering

One of the easiest and most common ways to get involved in your community is by volunteering. There are likely many organizations near you that could use an extra set of hands. Whether it’s sorting donations at a local thrift store or helping out at a park cleanup, there are plenty of opportunities to choose from. You can even search for volunteer opportunities online.
Attending Events
Another great way to get involved in your community is by attending events. There are likely several happening near you on any given day. Attending these events gives you the opportunity to learn more about your community and meet new people. You can find a list of upcoming events in your area by searching online or checking out local newspapers or newsletters.
Starting a Group

And that’s how to get involved in your community – it really is as easy as getting together with friends or family! Good luck!
