Answer 6

For the last 5 years I have provided housing for women being released from prison. You would be amazed at how many have no support from family or friends upon their release. Basically they are just left on the street to fend for themselves. This usually leads to a violation and they are returned to prison over and over again. These women are addicts who were incarcerated for a variety of non violent crimes. I have found it rewarding just knowing that in some small way I tried to help. I seriously believe we should all do a part in giving back to our communities, it makes us all better people

Answer 7

Working at wildlife preserve.

Answer 8

Poker Dealer

Answer 9

It may not be "The Dream Job" you requested but I find it rewarding and uplifting to help at the Give Kids The World location here in Central Florida. Was actually over there last night delivering Pizzas to approx 50 villas. This project provides the opportunity for families in which a child has a life threatening illness to visit Florida with all expenses paid including airfare, rental car, villa, food, etc. Its sad the families are able to come but very nice to provide the chance for them to temporarily escape the day to day worry they experience all year. The inspiring part is although these families have so many challenges in the life, when they are with us at the complex they are so up beat and positive. I wish we could do more for them. As you can imagine the volunteers perform all functions associated with their week stay. Currently we are able to accommodate. Over 100 families.

Answer 25

My DREAM volunteer job would be to work in an orphanage. I love children and know I have enough love to give each and everyone of them a bit brighter place to live.

As it is, I do volunteer every day without pay. I'm on my local Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department. I'm a certified EMT Basic with my application in for the EMT-Intermediate course this fall. So not only do I not get paid (and don't mind!) but actually SPEND MONEY to learn how to better serve my community as a volunteer EMT.
