Doing Good Together - an 2023 SLP Idea


Cole Zrostlik, Winding Rivers Library System consultant, recommends the Doing Good Together website. 

She writes: "In November, WRLS YS librarians welcomed MiaLisa Millares, executive director at Doing Good Together, a national, Twin Cities-based organization that empowers families to raise children who care and contribute, for a kindness-themed summer library program workshop. Please subscribe to the Doing Good Together newsletter and check out awesome resources, like book recommendations, service projects, printables, and more on the Doing Good Together website"
 
The goal of the organization is: "Doing Good Together™ (DGT) is a Minnesota-based national nonprofit that works to make volunteering and service, along with daily kindness, easy for every family. Our mission is unique and deeply layered. We provide tools to both families and organizations to help them raise compassionate, engaged children. Our innovative activities, resources, and support help make empathy and "giving back" a natural part of life's early lessons."

It's a great place to find projects, toolkits, book ideas  and program ideas that promote kids helping in the community.
