Yay! Summer vacations have begun and these are the best days of the year, aren't they, after the gruelling annual examination you can now finally go out and play with your friends, or with your cousins. This is the season of art and craft classes, late sleeping hours, playing cricket with friends and a lot of video games, isn't it?

Here's how you can spend your summer vacations in the best way by helping the poor:
The first thing you need to do is gather people by spreading the word out. You have to make your friends understand how dire is the situation of poverty in India, and not only that, how are poor people affected during the summers.
Write a letter to all your friends describing the same and asking them to find volunteering for students online or offline, with you.
You will be able to squeeze more benefits from volunteering opportunities if you work with your friends, not to mention how much more fun that would be.
You can use this volunteering opportunities by doing some educational volunteer work, for instance if teach kids of rural areas some very essential things that you have been taught at school.
You can teach them which medicines to use if they or anyone around them shows any signs of being struck by a heat wave. You can also teach them some first aid practices.
