Make A Difference Day is the largest national day of community service in the USA, which takes place on the fourth Saturday of October.

　　Who takes part in Make A Difference Day?

　　Anyone! Young and old, individuals and groups, anyone can carry out a volunteer project that helps others. It might be as ambitious as collecting truckloads of clothing for the homeless, or as personal as spending an afternoon helping an elderly neighbor or relative. USA WEEKEND covers volunteers and their projects in articles and photos.

　　How do I get started?

　　Look around your community. Are people hungry, homeless or ill? Are parks or schools dirty or neglected? No matter where you live, there's a need nearby. And on Make A Difference Day, millions of Americans are expected to roll up their sleeves to help others. You can act alone or enlist your friends, family and coworkers.

　　You can also call the Make A Difference Day Hot Line, 1－800－416－3824, for information. Or use the ideas on this website for inspiration.

　　What do I do after I've selected a project?

　　Tell others what you're doing and enlist help. Several weeks before the day, tell us about your plans in the Make A Difference DAYtaBANK, a national listing of local projects that will be viewed by interested volunteers, other people looking for good project ideas and news media looking for good stories to tell.
