Should there be a National Day of Service?

The govt encourages both MLK Day and 9/11 to be such a day.

but how should i do it? i live in the middle of nowhere,where can i volunteer?
also,i am dyslexic,so it can't involve reading.

you don't have to do something for a company. Just helping out your parents or nieghbors with chores can make a difference in their day.

Enjoy time with friends when you volunteer.

I think its a good idea.
It will help our country a lot.

I help my parents out every day, and I never considered it to be volunteer work.
That's an interesting point of view! Thanks!
As it turns out, I was unable to volunteer today because my mom just got home from breast cancer surgery. So I was indeed helping out around the house all day :-) which, I suppose, is volunteering!

Hello Mae,
I wanted to reply to what you posted. I understnad that you live in the middle of no where as you put it but just picking up trash around your area is volunteering for the earth. I know this is not the best thing to do but it is a start until you are able to get involved a little bit more. :]
