First of all, let’s all celebrate the fact that we’ve made it through the majority of the semester and now only have three weeks left. While this could be extremely scary, there is still tons of work left for the semester so stay motivated! What keeps many motivated this time a year is the holiday spirit, and if you’re anything like me, as soon I finish Thanksgiving dessert, I’m ready to pull out the Christmas decorations. To make this time of the year even more special, here are some great ways to volunteer around the city to spread the holiday spirit to give back.
