Jason Moore, 18 This summer, I’ll volunteer with Special House Program. They build good, low-cost houses and sell them to the poor. They’ll teach me what to do, so I am going to help people and also have a chance to learn how to build houses.

Trish Anderson, 16 I’m going to teach children who have trouble in reading. I’ll work for a program called Reading For Life.
