What We Do

At Making Waves FL, we help students take action in their communities by partnering with nonprofits across a variety of causes:
🌿 Environmental efforts like beach cleanups
🍱 Hunger relief and food drives
🏠 Homeless outreach and shelter support
🐾 Animal rescues and humane societies
🏅 Events with the Special Olympics
👟 Donation drives with organizations like In Jacob’s Shoes
… and many others

We organize events, recruit student volunteers, promote nonprofit missions through social media and blogs, and create leadership opportunities for teens who want to do more than just log hours—they want to make an impact.

We believe there is strength in numbers. By joining forces with other young volunteers and nonprofits who share our values, we’re proving that students have the power to lead, serve, and create lasting change.

​

Why It Matters

Service is more than checking a box. When students give back, they grow in confidence, compassion, and purpose. They discover their voice and their ability to shape the world around them.

Making Waves isn’t just a platform—it’s a community. A place where youth find support, inspiration, and the tools to lead with heart.
