   That's a relative question. The community service I consider enjoyable and worthwhile isn't necessarily what YOU would want.
   
   In the USA, look for opportunities here:
   
   VolunteerMatch, http://www.volunteermatch.org
   
   Idealist, http://www.idealist.org
   
   Change.org, http://www.change.org
   
   CraigsList, http://www.craigslist.com
   
   Network for Good, http://www.networkforgood.org
   
   http://www.1-800-volunteer.org/
   
   ServeNet, http://servenet.org/
   
   If you see an organization that you would like to help, but don't see a volunteering opportunity posted by that organization, it's okay to call them and say you would like to volunteer -- they may have opportunities they haven't posted. Also, many organizations are open to your own suggestions for volunteering activities.
   
   Also, contact your local volunteer center; you can find this via the Points of Light Foundation web site,
   
   http://www.pointsoflight.org/centers/
   
   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.
   
   If you aren't in the USA, then go to Google and type in the name of your country and the word volunteer. If you live in a very large city, then type the name of that city and the word volunteer. You will get a list of sites that have volunteering opportunities in your country.
   
   Remember that finding a volunteering gig can be like finding a job: you may have to interview several times before you are chosen for an assignment.
