FDR Man About Town
Franklin Roosevelt was born in Hyde Park, Dutchess County, NY on January 30, 1882, and it remained his home even while he was away at school, in Washington, DC, as Assistant Secretary of the Navy and as President, and in Albany, NY, as Governor. As a result he had many opportunities to contribute to and participate in groups, organizations, and activities where he grew up and spent his life.
Why not get involved in a group, organization or activity in your community this summer?
Becoming involved in your community is a great way to meet new friends, make your voice heard and gather new skills and experiences.
- What opportunities are there for young people to get involved in your community?
- Does your public library have volunteer opportunities?
- Is there a peer tutoring program that helps struggling students improve their skills?
- Is there a thrift store or food pantry that could use an extra set of hands this summer?
- Is there a need that is not being filled that you could point out and help organize support for?
