<p>There is a non-profit organization near me that does great stuff and I'd really like to contact them and ask if I can work or help out with the organization. Is this a bad idea, considering I'm only 15 years old?<br>
Sorry if the answer to this is obvious but I just wanted to make sure I'm not being foolish.</p>
<p>I’m sure any organization would be more than eager to have younger recruits.</p>
<p>Go for it.</p>
<p>That’s good to hear! Anyone else?</p>
<p>That’s definitely a great idea. I think it’ll be even better if you continue helping them out and working with them throughout your high school years. I only started volunteering this year which is my junior year since it is when students here get admitted to National Honors Society. If I knew more about colleges and everything when I was a freshman, I definitely would have volunteered and stuck with the same organizations while still helping out others for 3-4 years of high school since it definitely looks good on college applications that you are committed and all the jazz.</p>
