Our Time (Facebook) is a nonprofit dedicated to youth empowerment through the voting process. As more tablets and smartphones are making their way into the classroom, it makes sense that there are a number of apps aimed at helping young people with their education and job preparedness.

One of the nonprofits that inspires me locally here in Santa Cruz is a youth empowerment and food justice organization called "Food, What!?" Today, there are thirty kids fidgeting in a classroom, talking to their friends, messing with their phones. Read more online and buy your own copy today. And they turn their lives around.

You can also find volunteer opportunities at your local public school by contacting a school district, a school, or a teacher and asking how you can help. If you're a parent, the local PTA may have ways for you to get involved as well. Organizations like these teach everything from sports, to science, to the arts, to girl empowerment.
