DoSomething is a nonprofit exclusively for young people and social change with millions of members. Its mission is to fuel young people to change the world by taking action on the issues that are most pressing to them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through various campaigns and opportunities, DoSomething members can begin their civic engagement journey through volunteering, making a positive impact on their community, and working as a collective to build the future they hope to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the most important features of DoSomething is that it provides a very easy, clear-cut approach to volunteering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
With its youth-led campaigns, volunteering and making positive impacts on the world around us no longer have to feel so overwhelming or, to some of our most disillusioned souls, impossible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most of the organization\u2019s campaigns focus on how daily activities like sharing a post on our social media accounts can be as meaningful as going overseas to volunteer when these activities are done by millions of people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, DoSomething\u2019s We are The Voters<\/a> campaign helped 350,000 voters to learn about the importance of voting and got them to register to vote. Through its Teens for Jeans<\/a> campaign, 5 million pairs of jeans were donated to homeless shelters. Its GTFO (Get the Filter Out)<\/a> campaign brought together so many young people that they collected 3.7 million cigarette butts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For post-COVID causes, its It\u2019s (NOT) All in Your Head<\/a> campaign helps students to educate not only themselves but also other young people on how to deal with pandemic-related traumas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
