topic for my Service Writing Project?
Alright, so I have an essay/project coming up and it's a "service writing project". Here is some information my teacher wrote about it: "Your sixth writing assignment is to find a creative way to serve someone with your writing abilities. Some ideas might be to write a letter to a missionary, a story to share at a children’s hospital or nursing home, or a recipe to share with a neighbor." Some other info: "The topic is open. You may write using any format that will truly be a blessing to someone else. Be creative. Writing a letter to a relative is off limits. It needs to be something that you would not normally do." Just to avoid confusion, it's OK if I write to someone who's not going to write back or someone who has passed. I obviously don't want you to do this for me; I just want a little help getting the ideas flowing. Some examples my teacher has attached are things like a letter to a man who created a curriculum for home-schoolers, or a man who escaped the nazis in Germany (kind of like Corrie Ten Boom). I have ideas already, which consist of a letter to...founders of the Boys and Girls club of America; Peter Benenson, the lawyer who founded Amnesty International; Susan B. Anthony, regarding women's rights; and Edgar J. Helms, founder of Goodwill Industries. If you could give me maybe one or two ideas so I have a larger group to pick from, that would be great. If not, do you think the ideas I already have go along with the instructions and will get me a good grade? Thank you!

Writing a letter to anyone can be good enough in itself. Giving people hope in themselves, others and humanity are always good. You should try to stay away from cliches such as writing to people who have already achieved great things in their lives. You can catch your teacher off guard by choosing a close family member who you have never gotten close to, your neighbor, someone who recently lost their job, or even a person in your school that no one talks to. Choose average people around you, even a complete stranger would work. You don't need much to make a difference in the world. Just show someone you care. Also, you can always write to someone serving in the military.
