Visit a Nursing Home
One Beautiful World is affiliated with the South Florida chapter of
The Holiday Project, a nationwide organization that sponsors
monthly nursing home visits. See
our local programs If you are
elsewhere in the United States, check for a local Holiday Project
coordinator.
The Holiday Project Otherwise, contact a local
residence and just ask to visit.

Clean Up
One Beautiful World holds monthly beach cleanups. see our local
programs While the fellowship, location, and the fact that materials
are provided make it easy and fun to participate, anyone can clean
up a local park, alone or with friends. Put some gloves on your
children, give them some bags, and let them spot the things that
don't belong in nature. Some young veterans of our beach cleanup
now insist on picking up garbage whenever they see it, making their
parents proud (and more likely to remember the hand sanitizer). It
doesn't take much before children begin to take on good deeds
themselves.

One six year old participant in a recent beach cleanup has since, on
his own, cleaned up local parks, and collected littered cans for
curbside recycling.

Free Rice
At FreeRice, your child can check her skills in a variety of subjects
by taking quizzes. For each correct answer, ten grains of rice will be
donated to the UN Food Program to help end hunger.
