This book has been around for a bit, but if you haven’t seen it, it is worth searching out.
Kenneth Cole, the designer, has pulled into one resource a ton of information to inspire you to get out there and make a difference. In addition to quick interviews with 86 of his celebrity friends and acquaintances about what inspired them to get involved in charitable work (you’ll be amazed at the philanthropic projects of some of the less tabloid-haunted celebs), each chapter has terrific resources for projects around the world. Chapters are broken into categories like political activism, civil liberties, criminal justice, HIV/AIDS, environment, youth, etc.
You will find new avenues about which to get passionate–I promise.
And 100% of the book’s proceeds go to the Awearness Fund, which, in turn, directly supports other charitable organizations (Like the Foundation for AIDS Research: http://www.amFAR.org and HELP USA: http://www.helpusa.org)
Read it–you won’t regret it
