Heal the Bay’s entire purpose is to protect and clean up the Santa Monica Bay. The organization started as a grass roots group and relies on volunteers to help it accomplish its goals. There are several opportunities available, depending on your skill set and likes.

Instructions

1. Check out the Heal the Bay website. There is a tab along the top for organization events.
2. Look over the Heal the Bay programs. There is an annual benefit dinner, coastal clean up day and other volunteer events.
3. Know that you don’t have to have experience to participate in volunteer events. Heal the Bay will teach you everything you need to know.
4. Consider your options. They range from events at schools, in your office and in your community.
5. Reach out to the community, clean up creeks and beaches or volunteer your time in the Heal the Bay office — by helping with education, advocacy and research.
6. Volunteer at the Santa Monica Pier Aquarium. You have to go through an orientation and training to get you acclimated to the Aquarium. You also have to schedule an interview with the Volunteer Coordinator.
7. See if you can get school credit for your volunteer hours. Heal the Bay works with colleges to get you course credit.

Amazon is a trusted site where your website or blog visitors can immediately purchase the products you advertise, and when they do, you can earn up to 15% in referral fees. You can create a slideshow widget from the images of products in the Amazon catalog. Pick your favorite books, movies, and CD’s and they will be displayed in slideshow fashion. Here’s how you create your Amazon online store and make money advertising Amazon’s vast array of products.

Instructions

1. Go to Amazon.com and sign up for their Affiliate Program. Once you are approved login and click on the “Widgets” link and start building your Amazon Widgets. You can easily create almost any type of widget, such as, mp3, video, movies, aStore (advertising products that you have in your online store), and for this article, a Slideshow widget. Check the resourse link at the bottom of this article for an example of some of these widgets.
2. Creating a slideshow with great products is as easy as the click of your mouse. Put the product you want to advertise in the search box, for example, iPod, click on search, you’ll get a number of iPods to choose from, then click “add product.” You can also add a comment for that particular selection. Just copy and paste the specifications of your
   product and click “save comment.” Click the next step button.
3. Choose your content and layout (simple, gallery, or scrolling; if you choose scrolling you’ll need to select the orientation: landscape or portrait), along with the size of your widget, the transition, (fade, zoom in, or bounce) and the transition speed (slow, medium, or fast). Choose your color and design, click “add to my webpage” and you’ll get a choice of what site you want to add your widget to, ie., facebook, google pages, myspace, blogger, tagged, yahoo 360, wordpress, etc.
4. Copy and paste the code to your blog, social networking page, or website and you are done. Check the resource link, WHU Amazon Store, to see how this will look.
