Giving Back When You're a Poor College Student

By Samantha Bringas

When disasters strike do you ever feel the longing desire to help, but don't think you can make a difference? Let's face it, being a college student is hard enough, with scavenging for food, and late nights studying beside cheap coffee ironically sucking away all your time and energy, it's hard to imagine how one could spare a moment to serve in the community. But what if I told you that you could make a difference? I wrote this eBook to encourage and guide people like you to utilize your own talents in order to give back in the community. Filled with national organizations to support, local NYC school clubs to join, and practical tips that can assist you all around, you too will be able to make a difference in your community!

Acknowledgements

This book is dedicated to my husband, the one who woke up at 7am every time I needed to catch the train into the city. You encourage me to live out my dreams at whatever cost, and you never complain when I ask you to proof read. Every. Single. Sentence. Thank you Cassandra for allowing me to intern at the Campus Clipper and showing me that I can self publish my own work, and therefore can do anything. Also thank you Amanda, a fellow intern and writer, for editing my articles even during the business of a spring semester. Sarah Whang, thank you for the beautiful cover illustration. Special thanks to all my friends and family who read my articles I posted each week instead of casting them off as spam. And of course a huge thank you to God who placed me in weird NJ, only a train-ride away from the greatest city in the world. My life is very different than what I thought it would be, it is even better.

Ever get the feeling...

The worst type of guilt
