If I were to select 5 community-service project ideas, I would choose the following ones:
1. English as Second Language Homework Club There are many students from elementary school who need help in studying English, and sometimes the teacher is not able to pay as much attention to one certain student as needed. I think High School students would be happy to volunteer and help others to learn English.
2. High School Tutors for Elementary Students My opinion is that this project would improve the Elementary Students'knowledge in many domains such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, languages, and others. Many students don't understand the topics taught in the class and they would really use the help of the tutors.
3. Christmas with Social Services I always feel happy when the winter holidays are coming. Everyone deserves to enjoy Christmas, everyone should feel the magic of the holidays. Giving gifts and offering our attention to those in need will certainly make a change.
4. Global Youth service day Nowadays youth is able to make a change in the world, create better and safer conditions to live. If we are united we can improve many problems of the community.
5. Sharing is caring Children from orphanages are less happy than those of us who have parents. A parent has a major role in a child's life, and we who are lucky indeed should be able to share what we have with others. Although we will never be able to replace them their parents, we 'll certainly make their day a little happier.

I think that during this academic year I'd like to implement the following community service:
1. “Funny English for Everybody” - I chose this community service project because every child must learn a foreign language to be able to communicate with people of different nationalities, in special English language that is an international communication language. In order to learn a foreign language easier children must find an easier way to get it and here is where this project comes.
2. “Christmas with Social Services” - Everyone has the right to celebrate Christmas especially children, but some of them cannot afford it. Christmas is a holiday that brings happiness in every house. Why don’t we bring this happiness in the houses of unhappy children?
3. "Food for the Homeless"- In last time, we love to spoil with many kind of food, for us a simple food is unappetizing. It would be a great idea to share food with homeless, for making them happy, even for a day. I think that this project is a way to make life better in our school and community, they do not require many material resources and they will give us a reason to be better than yesterday.
4. “Global youth service day” – I think everybody has a story that he/she wants to share with the surrounding world and change the world in a better one. Even we can change the world.
5. “I Want To Go to School, Too” - According to the children's rights everyone has the right to go to school and learn something that will help him/her in his future. And we must help the children in need to go to a good school.

If I had the possibility to implement 5 of these projects ideas they would be:
1. "A New Life for Sport and Youth"- In our town there are many young people who love to practice sports, but they cannot go to a new level, they need help, a coach and a special place for training. I think this project is a solution for this problem.
2. "Funny English for Everybody"- Nowadays, English is an international language of communication all over the world. Everyone needs to learn this language in order to travel, to use the computer, to make pen-friends in other countries.
3. "Sharing Is Caring"- I would like to share my stuff and my knowledge with people who really need them. It’s a great job, I think.
4. "Clean the Town-Save the Planet"- Cleanliness is health. This project will help to maintain our town clean and improve the health of citizens. This project is also good for tourism because the town will become more beautiful and welcoming. Sincerely, we have already implemented such projects as every spring and every autumn our school pupils clean the park near lyceum.
5."Food for the Homeless"- Every time I hear the word ‘’charity’’ I think about Mother Teresa or Princess Diana. They are a model of kindness for me. I’d like to be as they were. I think this project is a chance for me and other students from our lyceum to become better than yesterday.
