Answer 1

If your school is having a summer school you could help teach younger kids.

Answer 2

Volunteers are in demand!  The Elks, Moose, Eagles, Sertoma, and numerous others have on-going projects that need help.  There should be a web side for your local area that requests volunteers.  I sure wish you were in my area.  We need you!  Example is:
