TV networks are promoting volunteerism on numerous series this week, so there’s a good chance you’ll see a favorite character in the act of lending a hand while you’re reclining on your couch (not that there’s anything with a little downtime on the couch in front of the tube…). Each of us has worked with Surfrider and Heal the Bay for beach clean-ups and other efforts to keep our beaches safe and clean and we can attest to the fact that doing something feels good. If you’re looking for a place to pitch in, environmental organizations are a good place to start and we’ve also got a list of other do-good organizations on our site.–Stef McDonald
