Citizenship Duties

In many communities, the government depends on volunteer work to accomplish all sorts of things. For instance, recycling is a great way to help your local community. It's important that this duty must be fufilled so your area is safe and unharmful to people and animals. It would be unfortunate if someone was hurt because they stepped on a piece of litter. Disaster relief is another helpful volunteer that local citizens do. If a terrible storm, such as a tornado, hit your town and blew your house away, you would have nowhere to turn. You would have to depend on the kindness of others and your family to get you through this tough situation. That's why most places where disasters hit have people to rebuild houses and buildings. There are also shelters you can stay in while your new home is being built and repaired. It is important to have this support so you will be safe and secure after a disaster.
