Watch: Ask Freddie: “How Do I Make New Friends?”

"Be involved. Be open. Be you."

“Ask Freddie” is a monthly advice column where Freddie, DoSomething’s Director of Mobile Messaging, answers anonymous questions from DoSomething members. The topics are always different -- the answers are always REAL. Are you seeking advice? Ask Freddie an anonymous question.

Every week, our Director of Mobile Messaging texts over 3 million young people just like you to offer up words of wisdom about everything from adjusting to college life to keeping up with current events. It’s not easy to answer hundreds of questions individually, so we’ve selected a few of these private messages to answer publicly, because it turns out a lot of you are curious about the same things.

This week, Freddie’s tackling all your questions about making new friends with three easy tips: be involved, be open, and be yourself.

DoSomething.org is the largest not-for-profit exclusively for young people and social change. Our digital platform is activating 6 million young people (and counting!) to create offline impact in every US area code and in 131 countries.
