Yes, absolutely all of these count. On applications, if you can't find a category these fit under, put "other" and explain. A previous poster said that writing letters wouldn't count, but this is not true. Political lobbying like this is a great way to show that you are an active citizen and that you care about your country/state/region. I would definitely include this in your application!
Good luck!
Hello, you have a lot of unique extracurricular activities. Coding, hosting virtual events, personal instagram account, tutoring, and website editor are all great extracurricular activities. I am not so sure about the writing letters would count. Extracurricular activities are activities that are done outside the school. So, what I am thinking that it depends on how long and how often you been writing letters to the nursing homes and Congressmen. I hope this helps!
