Perhaps you could have them work in pairs - creative writing - and choose a famous person and imagine where this person would be able to contribute best as a volunteer, and perhaps how they could then also join... They could even imagine to be the leaders of a project which helps teenagers with problems and in charge of getting famous people to volunteer in projects(who would they get and how and why). They could actually turn the whole things into a big project and in the end you could have them vote for the best. Who knows, you may even inspire some to start their own projects in real life. |

Hi my main purpose is to put them work in pairs analysing the given texts. After the analysis they have to expose the main ideas to the other groups. That is why I need more texts about famous people involved with voluntary organizations. I want to create more groups for discussing ideas |

You could try to find texts dealing with Bono or Evangelina Joly who are quite involved in charities in the world. Good luck!
