Step 1
Go though your closet. How many of us have clothes you have worn once or not even at all. All those clothes you don't wear put in a bag and take it to your local Community Service League or Goodwill. Then clear out the clutter in your kitchen cabinets. Take some of the old pots and pans you don't use that often and put them give them to someone who can.

Step 2
How to Give BackEveryone is busy trying to get by in life. We all have bills to pay and not a lot of extra time to spend doing the things we enjoy. You can volunteer and still spend time with your family. Call your local animal shelter and go walk dogs as a family. You can go to the local food pantry and help sort the food as a family. You can make it fun turn it into a game who can go through their pile of cans the fastest.

Step 3
How to Give BackAdopt a family. As a family, have your kids go thought their clothes and toys to see what they use/wear and what they could give to someone who doesn't have as much as they do. Give each of your kids a budget to shop for another kid. This will show them how lucky they are and how good it can feel to help others.

Step 4
How to Give BackThere are many things that you could do to help someone you just have to try. Cook dinner for a single mom with two jobs. Offer to babysit for a couple who is going through a hard time. Not everything costs when you try and help others.
