Chores can be boring, but what if we all stopped doing them? That house would be pretty messy! So what would happen if we all stopped contributing to our community? This episode of NowThis Kids, host Naomi Wadler is talking about being an active part of your community and why it’s important.  We speak to Emma MacDonald, an active member of the Fort Greene Community in Brooklyn, New York, who tells us about The Fort Greene Community Fridge: an outdoor refrigerator full of free food for families in need. Plus, how she got into volunteering and the importance of helping her community.  You don’t have to do huge things to help your community – Correspondent Luria Freeman explains how even small acts of kindness can go a long way.  We want to hear from you!
