Tips for leading great meetings, planning projects, organizing fundraisers and much more! All resources are also available in PDF.
Three Annual Mailings
Each registered club will get 3 action kits mailed directly to them with folders, stickers, project ideas, and upcoming DS campaign announcements to help get them active.
Online Club Profile
Each club will get their own club profile page where your club can upload pictures, post project, announce club events, message members and connect with other clubs and individuals who are "doing something". The DS Club Profiles will be unveiled with our new website this summer.
Group Messaging and Calendar
Invite your club members to join your group through our online clubs system. You can message all members to announce meetings and events. Your club also gets its very own online calendar to update with important dates and time lines.
Disaster Relief Preparedness
When a disaster happens, all the club [creators/presidents] will be invited to join an emergency town meeting on IM and phone to determine a national response. Your Club will be part of the first youth response, like volunteer firefighters ready to help!
Local Opportunities
There are tons of amazing organizations doing great work in your community. Do Something is connected nationally to organizations doing work around all causes. We’ll keep you in the loop about how groups in your community are working to change the world, special events, and ways you can get involved.
Support From a Real Human Being
There is someone in our office whose whole job is to answer your questions and help make your club easier, more fun, and more effective. You can e-mail Melanie Stevenson at clubs@dosomething.org
