1. take your old blankets and towels and any pet toys or things to the local no-kill shelter. If you have time, volunteer to walk the dogs, or play with the cats.
2. take all your canned food that you didn’t eat or use down to food for lane county. especially if it’s good stuff.
3. take all your books that you’ve already read, to the local literacy center. in eugene there’s one downtown that teaches people to read.
4. take your old clothes, wash em, and give them to goodwill.
5. volunteer to go to a nursing home and visit people who don’t have relatives that visit. You can offer to record memoirs (often single people without kids have led very interesting lives)
6. let someone who looks more tired than you have your seat.

Everyone can do something. Seriously.

I don’t have a lot of time but I do what I can, and my politics have nothing to do with it.
