Where should I volunteer?

Question

I really don't want to volunteer at the homeless shelter. I'm too young to volunteer at the pet shelter and I already volunteer at the hospital.

Where else could I volunteer??

Answer 2

There's a website called www.volunteermatch.org. They will help you get set up with something for your age in your area.

Check out your local library (they usually need more help), churches are good, food drives. When school starts, check out what's going on there -- usually they'll have one or two activities going on throughout the year.  

Answer 3

Answer 10

Bree, this is going to sound so hokey, but as a working mom, there were plenty of times that I could not have made it if it hadn't been for the "volunteer" services of my son.  Shoulder more of the load at home, without being asked.  It will mean more than you can know.

Thanks for your volunteer spirit!  I am so proud of you!!
