Kids for a Cause: Eighth Graders Volunteer in the Bergenfield Special Improvement District

Written by Marketing Intern Rose Provine

When looking to volunteer, there's no better place to make a difference than in your own community. Three Bergenfield, New Jersey teens recently stepped up to help clean up the decorative planters in the Bergenfield Special Improvement District. 

The young philanthropists, Vincent DeBellis, DJ Haskins and James Hamilton, coordinated a clean-up plan to clean out all of these planters in preparation for spring flower planting. 

According to Hamilton, "If you are going to put time and effort into something, it's great when it benefits everyone in the community."

When looking to volunteer, look around and see what you can do in your own surroundings. Everyone can do something to make their community better. What can you do?
