“I believe that every single one of us, celebrity or not, has a responsibility to get involved in trying to make a difference in the world.

How to Celebrate National Make A Difference Day
Celebrating the National Make A Difference Day is quite simple. Take time to make some positive changes in the environment you live in. The change you wish to do depends on your imagination and quality. Encourage people around you to make their contribution to society and thereby creating a difference. You can help the people you see, or you already knew by providing them with the things they need for. For eg., provide them with food, shelter, clothes, blankets, and things like it.
You can form a group and clean the river or pond to stagnate waters that help people in the surrounding regions during drought times. Plant saplings to save the earth from various ecological problems. Ask people to go green and initiate it from you.
