Brian asked:


I am organizing an event to benefit a series of charities in my community for needy families during the holiday season. Is it legal to solicit money for a collection of charities as I’m planning to do, then disperse the money to the charities myself?

What are some legal charities that would allow a sixteen year old to volunteer during the school year in NYC?

I want to volunteer at a legal charity during my junior year of high school but it seems like there aren’t any opportunities. It seems like most places only want law school students/graduates. I wouldn’t mind doing grunt work; I just want to experience helping other people in a legal setting.
