  1. It would help to know what city/state you are in. But, if you are younger, your school counselor should be able to give you some leads. If you are involved in a church, they'll have things for you to do. I go to a Unitarian Universalist church and almost everyone seems to be volunteering somewhere!

    When I was younger I did a school program where I helped younger kids learn to read. I've volunteered at retirement homes. You could find an organization that you are interested in and find your local chapter. I've also cooked dinner for the local LGBT safe house. See if your friends do anything in the community - there are TONS of opportunities.

    If you google volunteer and your city, you should be able to find something. Sometimes your local chamber of commerce will have volunteer ideas as well.


  2. For the USA: VolunteerMatch (http://www.volunteermatch.org), Idealist (http://www.idealist.org) and CraigsList (http://www.craigslist.com) all list volunteering opportunities with thousands of organizations. There's also this government sponsored site (http://volunteer.gov/gov/) which provides volunteer positions through USA federal land agencies like Fish & Wildlife, Forest Service, National Parks, etc. Also, contact your local volunteer center; you can find this via the Points of Light Foundation web site (http://www.pointsoflight.org/centers/).
