Summer Opportunities

Being that summer break starts in one weeks for me (thank goodness!) I have been brainstorming ideas of ways that anyone really could make money or get volunteer hours.

Babysitting
This is a great way to make money! I put out flyers in my neighborhood and got lots of people interested. The best part about babysitting is the family usually uses you again and again. 

Volunteering
This summer I reached out to the Alzheimer's Association of Richmond because they are near to my heart, and I wanted to offer my time throughout the summer so I feel productive along with getting lots of hours. Find any place that you are passionate about and just send them an email expressing your interest and they will be so thankful for it trust me!

Another way that I am volunteering is at my local library. This sounds super boring but shelving books for two hours once a week is not that bad, it's peace and quiet. By the end of the summer you will end up with tons of hours!!

Work at your pool
Many pools need lifeguards. It's fun and you can work on your tan. If you don't trust yourself to save people's lives like me, then you could always work in a pool concession stand or be a waitress at your country club. I know that some of my friends get great tips! So if you want a paycheck and additional money definitely check it out. And they get free food!!

Start a Blog
I only have two posts, but writing/ reading blogs is so much fun. It's productive but super fun and you have the convenience of staying at home in your pjs. You can write about anything! As long as you are passionate, you will be successful. Or even aside from being successful do it for you. It is a great way to look back on your life a few years down the road.

I hope this gave yall some ideas!! There is more to come once summer starts on this blog ;)
