Natalie’s NewsHey Division 12/22!
First I want to say, I hate this color scheme too. Red and yellow, what is this, a McDonald’s? But
it had to be done.
I hope you all have been participating in some great service projects! I can not believe June is over already! Time really flies when you watch ten episodes of The Office in one day. I try to find one accomplishment I can be proud of
each day. Today’s moment was volunteering at a kid’s camp and eating lunch with a boy who looked EXACTLY like a baby Jake Gyllenhaal.
Hey, ya gotta start small.

most popular movie and song on the day you were born. Mine are Space Jam and… “No
Diggity”. 1996 was a rough year.

someonehappy
then you’ll be
happy too. This year’s Divisional Project isn’t about being grand. You don’t need to
be the biggest club, have the most resources, or live in a big city. This
project is about spreading joy. Even the simplest acts can make a lasting
impact. The only requirement for this project is to do at least 10 Random
Acts of Kindness around your community and send in proof of
completion. Here are some ideas to get you started:
• Make birthday boxes for children living in shelters
• Visit a nursing home
• Donate blankets to the police and fire departments
• Bring flowers to a hospital
• Donate to the food pantry
• Throw a card shower for someone in your community
• Create a homeless care package
• Write letters to deployed military
• Collect dog treats for the animal shelter
• Hang up signs promoting happiness
• Tape quarters to a vending machine
• Clean up a local park
• Tape sticky notes with compliments around your school
• Eat lunch with someone who is lonely
• Hand out candy canes during Christmas time
And more! I can’t wait to hear what you guys come up with!
