Here are four ways to make an even greater impact for the Environment (or any favorite cause):
- Have a minute? Share this ambassador program with friends and classmates.
- Have just 4 hours per week? Join our nonprofit, which the New York Times called, "an Amazon.com of the nonprofit world" as a Community Engagement Intern. Raise awareness at your college, and help Environmental nonprofits capture some of the fortune that is now spent on traditional presents.
- Have 10 to 40 hours per week? Join Changing The Presentas a Virtual Intern.
- Visit ChangingThePresent.org to give donations as meaningful presents or just to make a difference, and create a charitable wish list to encourage friends to give in your name.
