I believe we all have an opportunity and responsibility to help brighten the lives of those around us. One way I do this is through charity costuming/cosplay. I am a member of both the 501st Legion, and the Mandalorian Merc Costuming Club. Both are official Lucasfilm-approved charity costuming organizations.
We dress up as characters from the Star Wars universe and volunteer to attend events such as visiting children’s hospitals, fundraisers for organizations such as the Make A Wish Foundation.
