I can't disagree with you, Zen. There is a lot of need out there. An individual volunteer, or even charitable organization, can't do it all. In fact, I think if you look at all the need out there and try to detrmine the best place to help out, you can become overwhelmed and not help at all. But when little opportunities like this come up, it's worthwhile to join in. Like Clodfobble's decorated highway, this will lift the spirits of the people who see it, and it gets my kid in the habit of helping out. And it's a small enough job that you can see what you accomplished. It's also the kind of thing a kid can do.
