Inspired by the vision, spirit, and activities of thousands of kids working to improve the lives of others, Take Action! shows how you, too, can change the world.

From writing letters and public speaking to planning fundraisers, preparing petitions, and working with the media, Take Action! covers all the basics of how to become socially involved–and have fun at the same time! You’ll discover how you and your friends can join the fight for children’s rights, get involved in environmental issues, help those suffering from hunger and poverty, and much more. You’ll also meet other extraordinary young people like yourself who turned their thoughts and passion into action and have made a tremendous impact on these issues.
