4 . LegalShield is the alternative way of working with a lawyer/law firm. We have been offering prepaid legal plans to consumers for over 47 years. One low monthly price with no long-term commitments provides legal coverage for you and your entire family.

The truth is that most lawyers charge hundreds per hour for their services. It takes time and effort to find the right one, and when you do, they’re always busy, hard to access and charging for every second of your time (even on email). You can stop watching the clock and start speaking to a lawyer with a prepaid legal plan from LegalShield for only $24.95 per month.

With a LegalShield protection plan, you only have to pay a small monthly fee in exchange for round-the-clock legal protection. When you have a legal issue, need help with a contract, or just want advice, our lawyers are just a call or click away.

5 . For top students from low-income families, applying to colleges is particularly difficult. One approach makes this whole process easier? Provide an adviser for them.

That's the idea behind CollegePoint, a program to help gifted students go to schools that match their intelligence. When a high school student takes a standardized test—the PSAT, SAT or ACT—and they score in the 90th percentile, and their families make less than $ 80, 000 a year, they get an email from the program offering them a free adviser. The advisers listen, guide and answer students' questions.

Connor Rechtzigel, an adviser in Minnesota, sees the importance of his role, for research shows that low-income students are far more likely to undermatch because they don't think they have what it takes to get in and because many don't even know what schools are out there. He helped high school senior Justice Benjamin, the first in his family to apply to college, thinking about what his ideal learning experience was. Finally, Justice narrowed in on smaller schools where he could study environmental science and made his final choice: Skidmore College in New York.

Figuring out how to pay for college is a major part of what CollegePoint advisers do. Nakhle, an adviser in North Carolina, is working with Hensley, an Ohio high school senior who can't get extra financial help from her family. They spent a lot of time comparing and analyzing her financial-aid award letters, which made her decision much clearer. Finally, the Ohio State University offered an option where she would pay nothing. Staying in-state wasn't her first choice, but it was the best option for her.

7 . Donate Your Used Books

When it comes to donating used books, look beyond your local library or thrift store; there are plenty of incredible organizations making a difference in the world through the power of books. Here are some of the best.

A great way to honor and support our troops is to donate books to Books for Soldiers. This non-profit allows users to sign into a database and receive book requests from individual soldiers. Mail-call days are some of the most highly expected events for them.     1    

Give them to the nation's poorest communities

Reader to Reader's impact has been incredibly wide-reaching and impressive.    2    . The program specifically benefits the nation's poorest communities, from inner-city schools and Naïve American Reservations to impoverished, rural towns. Reader to Reader has donated over 2 million books to rebuild school libraries destroyed by Hurricane Sandy and other natural disasters like fires and tornadoes. By donating your books here, you'll make a huge impact in America's struggling cities.

Books for Prisoners is a non-profit student organization based at the University of California. San Diego. This incredible program donates books and resources to inmates from all over the country. Individual inmates write to the organization, often requesting specific books, dictionaries, and textbooks for their studies. Books for Prisoners, in turn, sends the requested materials in the hopes of furthering their education and helping to turn their lives around.    3    .   So you can help make their goals a reality by donating your used books.
