We’re super-proud of Disney Channel star Debby Ryan for traveling to India this year as a part of Disney’s Friends for Change program.  Debby was totally inspired by her role as a Disney Channel Ambassador, so she wanted to find a project that would help her give back to the community. 

 

So, what did she do? The 19-year-old made the trek to India to help build a new school for kids in a local village!  Debby worked in collaboration with a non-profit foundation called Free the Children, which is all about helping children around the world. 

 

Want a peek at Debby’s life-changing adventure? Check out this video below, documenting all the hard work she and other volunteers have put in…
 

           

Debby wants to inspire other kids to get involved with their communities by volunteering.  Any effort, big or small, can make a difference! For more info on how YOU can make a difference in your community, CLICK HERE.

 

If you could travel anywhere in the world for volunteer work, where would you go? Blog about it, babes.

In India, in the same neighborhood as really rich people live people who live in one-room huts. Like when I went there three years ago, then in the same neighborhood as my cousins (who are REALLY rich) there was this one girl who lived with her family (mother, father, and brother) in a one room hut. They slept on hammocks... So sad.

Debby Ryan in a sari... That was priceless. I think it was really nice of her to help the people in need... (By the way, that village is in the middle of the desert judging by the city its near)

Thats really cool, I bet she is having a great time. India is such a cool place my family and I visit every two years, and own an orphanage there. I always love to visit and help out

Hey, how many people here play the Fashion Fantasy Game? I heard it was the latest thing for teens, so I tried it out and was impressed, especially since it was a free fashion design game. It sure beats Stardoll. I like the outfits I designed.
