Ideas for my charitable foundation...
19/F
When I was 17, I started foundation focusing on helping underprivileged kids locally. One thing I created was a free summer lunch program in Detroit for kids whose families needed it. During those 2 hours everyday, these kids would come in, have lunch and play games and stay out of trouble, if only for 2 hours a day. My mom's work friend help me set this up, and she basically took care of it when I was not able to come in.
Unfortunately, I got busy with college and since then, my foundation has been on hiatus. My contact who helped me set it up has moved away. I am going to try and set it up again myself this summer, but what other ideas can I do with this? I feel like I have such a great opportunity but it's going to waste.
(Another idea we had was a "Christmas in July" toydrive, where we could collect toys and bring them to the Children's Hospital in the summer. This is because the fire departments already donate toys in the winter.)
Thanks!

If you keep your mind into it, it wont become a waste. What you are doing is great, I haven't heard about it, but it sounds great.
