On a side note, your site is displaying funny for me...the sidebar is all the way at the bottom. A lot of local charities are hurting this year due to the hurricanes.

I once took 10 teens to work on Habitat for Humanity Housing... They had a BLAST, helped build a house, and learned about helping others... Great Idea ncnblog.com PS... (The 10 teens were only able to do the "work" of 3 or 4 grown-ups who would have know what they were doing... be sure that if you take kids to volunteer, that they are given just the right amount of responsibility) Monkey,
