Y’know who won’t be ogling you?

You’ve been hittin’ the gym every day since January with the explicit intent of rocking a thong-cut bikini for Spring Break in Cabo. Wooooooo!

And I bet you’ll look fiiine. And I bet all the boys will be all, mmm-hmmm.

But y’know who won’t be ogling you? Homeless people.

(Okay, maybe I’m being a tad alarmist, but it’s true nonetheless.)

Consider using your bad-ass bod and sculpted muscles to make a difference. Habitat for Humanity offers their “Collegiate Challenge” – an “alternative break program” which encourages college kids to spend their outdoor energies building houses for the needy.

Habitat For Humanity has affiliates all over the U.S. so it’s a viable option no matter where you go to school. And even if you’ve already booked your tickets South, you can always consider opting for this “alternative” for your next break.

Though it’s not quite as glamorous as lounging on pink sandy shores, the feeling of generosity lasts exponentially longer than a tan. And consider this: will you meet better guys doing shooters in Mexico or doing charity work in N’orleans?
