Want a little inspiration? Listen to my interview with 14 year old Kenan Pala, who goes to Francis Parker, and established a non profit for kids two years ago, Kids4Community.
Right off the bat, he helped set a Guinness World Record involving cereal boxes distributed to people in need.
Kenan wants to get other kids involved, and the rewards are endless.
The group is having its first ever essay contest for middle and high school students to write about what community service means.
Listen to Kenan's story and what inspired him below:
