I've marched in a few protests. Mostly for equal rights, freedom from religious institutions, access to education and better pay for teachers.
I've also volunteered many places starting when I was 19. I've volunteered at the local humain society, domestic abuse center, and several mental health places like NAMI and PAIMI.
Giving back with time is the best way I can contribute. It makes me feel as if I have some worth and reason for existence.
