Answer 2

Thanks for caring! Trying out summer volunteer opportunities is a good way to find out what you're good at & what you care about. When it comes time to make career decisions, you'll have more information on which to decide. Good for you!

You start with your heart; do you like kids? Animals? The environment? Academic interests? Working outdoors? Do you have a heart for the sick or elderly?

Then, contact organizations (civic or church-based) and start asking questions. Call your local elementary school and see who runs the summer day care programs in your town. Maybe they need an extra pair of hands. Your church secretary knows who runs the church nursery or vacation Bible school. There are daycares who like helpers.

You can shelve books at the library, city hall might know of local community festivals going on that need help to set up and tear down.  Hospitals and nursing homes have volunteer coordinators who are in charge of those needs.

So, start with what you like, and see where it takes you. Have fun!

Best to you.

Try volunteermatch.org..just type your zip code and it will generate some listings. They usually have several listings that are geared toward students...
