Nota bene: The OP did not ask what we were doing as service, he asked what we were giving up. Beside the six weeks' discipline of denying oneself a small pleasure (in an act of strengthening one's self control and decreasing worldly distraction a bit), you don't know what good we may be doing.
The traditional prescription for Lent is threefold--prayer, almsgiving, and fasting. In addition, we are reminded to keep both penance and good deeds to ourselves unless discussing them with others in order to encourage or teach.
