  • However, you can lend your own voice to people who don't have one.

  • Using vocal i d.

  • All you need to do is set aside a few hours, record your voice uploaded to the database and know that you've made a real difference.

  • You don't have to spend a lot of money to help other people out.

  • So if you don't have a lot of money, or even if you do, check out these dawns that make a difference.

  • Things to do online.

  • Now, guys, some particularly expensive items can be clothing now for those who are in need, there is the street store dot ord.

  • It's a pop up clothing store created in South Africa that prints out hangers for unwanted clothes and turns any street corner into a shop for the homeless.

  • You can do it to print off the open source templates.

  • Take your spare clothes along and turn your street into a store for those who may need them Now, once you've printed something off, of course it ceases to be a dong, but it's a charitable thing to do.

  • So that's okay.

  • If you don't have spare clothing but do happen to have spare art supplies, then head to Creative Pitch Dot or GE, a Chicago based organization that gathers unwanted art materials and gives them free.

  • Tow our teachers and therapists who need them the most.

  • You've probably already heard of free rice dot com, a site that for every question you answer correctly, donates 10 grains of rice to charity.

  • Well, in February 2015 they reached 300 billion grains.

  • Over two million cell samples have been analyzed by citizen scientists like you on Cell Slider, an interactive tool from cancer Research UK, where from your own computer, you can help scientists work three thousands of really cell samples detecting cancer.

  • Right now, they're up to date, but Maur are always added, and the tutorial on how it works and what sort of cells to be looking for is fascinating to work through.

  • Searching like this takes a very long time, but searching for some addresses on Earth is almost impossible.

  • Here's when what?

  • Three words would be useful Tool maps the entire earth onto 57 trillion three meter square areas and allocates three words to each of them for global pinpointing, as well as exploring the three word names of familiar locations to you.

  • ING system.

  • Many people on earth don't have proper address ing for their location, so they aren't able to get deliveries or receive aid.

  • Latitude and longitude are great, but they're sometimes cumbersome, tricky to remember and not fully understood by many.

  • If you just opened a new tab to go, do this before the videos even over and make sure it's a tab for a cause, download the plug in and for every new tab you opened, you raise a small amount of money for different charities you can pick from.

  • I will leave you with a bonus song that's not free but is incredibly charitable.

  • The V Sauce Holiday box.

  • This box comes loaded with awesome V sauce goodies picked by myself and Kevin and Jake, plus 100% of the sauce proceeds go directly toe Alzheimer's research.

  • It's a great box.
