article one :As a teenager, whenever you have gone out with friends or traveled away from home, you've likely been asked to call and check in every once in a while. Most of us probably don't think much about doing so. We may even talk on the phone with friends or family members several times a day. But pretend for a moment that you are a soldier in the military. You have been sent overseas for several months, away from all of your family and friends, in order to serve your country. You might imagine that the ability to call home and talk with your loved ones would be something to look forward to. But what if those phone calls left you with a $7,600 phone bill?

When 14-year-old Brittany Bergquist and her 12-year-old brother Robbie, of Norwell, Massachusetts, saw a news story about a soldier who found himself with just this problem, they decided to help. Robbie recalls, "We were taken aback and wanted to make sure he didn't have to pay that cell phone bill!" They began by raising money. Brittany and Robbie donated 14 dollars of their own savings and collected seven dollars from friends. A local bank heard about what they were doing and donated $500. But $521 was nowhere near the amount needed to help the soldier pay his bill. So Brittany decided to send donated cell phones to the soldiers. This way, they would have their own phone to use when calling home, which would be less expensive. Brittany and Robbie collected as many old cell phones as they could. But there was a problem. Because of security concerns, the Pentagon would not allow the phones to be sent overseas. Brittany and Robbie were determined, so they came up with another idea. They found a cell phone recycler in Michigan who would pay them five dollars for each
It didn't take long for the Cell Phones for Soldiers program to take off. Today, there are over seven thousand locations to drop off your old cell phone. The program has recycled over ten million phones since it was started in 2004. Over 180 million minutes of talk time have been given to the soldiers, and each week, about twelve thousand calling cards are sent. The Bergquist family still runs the program largely on their own. Brittany says that her involvement with the charity has helped her learn how to build awareness for a cause, and form relationships with companies that can help. Although she admits that she gets nervous when she has to do something that is out of her comfort zone, she has learned that it is important to overcome her fear so that her charity can continue to grow. She says founding Cell Phones for Soldiers "... has been the most positive and motivating experience of my life..." and that, "It's unbelievable and overwhelming to know that we've been able to help out families that we're never going to see; that we've had an impact on their lives."

Artical two:It's Saturday night. You've just fallen asleep after spending the day hanging out with friends, watching movies, and enjoying being a typical teenager on the weekend. Suddenly, the beeper on your nightstand goes off. You jump up and get ready because someone needs your help. For a group of teenagers in Alaska, known as the Dragon Slayers, this is nothing unusual. They are from the town of Aniak, located about three hundred fifty miles west of Anchorage. Forget driving there, you can only reach the town by plane! There are around six hundred residents and one medical clinic, but the doctor only visits once a month. This means that if you are visited by a medical or fire "dragon," getting treatment or being rescued might be difficult. In fact, until the Slayers were formed, there was no emergency service in the town after 4 p. m. To address the problem, the fire chief decided to train qualified teenagers as first responders. He believed that because most of them did not have jobs, they had the time required to take on the responsibility.

Today, the Dragon Slayers respond to about 450 calls per year. They are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The team is made up of 14- to 18-year-old girls and boys. No matter what the emergency, it is important that Dragon Slayers remain calm and have the medical skills to help those who need them. They have over two hundred hours of medical and fire-safety training. All are certified emergency trauma technicians. They must also get passing grades in school and be drug and alcohol-free. They are expected to treat everything from minor injuries requiring only first aid, to more serious issues such as heart attacks. They may be called to scenes ranging from small plane crashes to automobile accidents.
