Extracurriculars...specifically, starting a non proft.

While, obviously, it would look good on a college app, the main reason I would really want to do this is to be able to give back to a community and make it so that people just maybe won’t have to go through what my family had to when my grandmother passed away due to liver cancer…Also, I find it horrible that some people are put irretrevably into debt due to medical costs. But, if it really is that hard, I guess it would probably be more efficient and realistic just to organize a fundraiser or something of that nature.

I thank all of you for the advice! I will probably look into the non profit stuff, but I also found a group that is in my area that provides students with the option of starting a club, business, or not for profit with 1000 seed money…I shall see!

Once again, thanks so much!
