How old do you have to be?
How many hours do you have to work?
What training do you get?

I would like to spend December 25 doing community service in New York. Please give me some advice as to what type of work I could do (like soup kitchens) and with which organizations? This is not for a long term commitment, only that one day. Thanks bunches!

I was hoping that someone here could help me in regards to where to volunteer on Christmas day in Melbourne/Victoria.

My partner and I are looking to give the morning/ lunchtime on Christmas day to help with some type of community Christmas event, such as serving lunch to the homeless.

We tried contacting the salvos but they weren't interested, does anyone know of any charities or places for us to call?

Thanks

I moved to SoCal a few months ago and want to do something beside work and come home... What are some good volunteer opportunities around? I really would like to work with animals or kids and donate my time.

I currently already give money to United Way, but it doesn't seem enough to me with so much going on in the world today. Also with so much time on my hands too!

Any good ideas or sites? I cannot find anything for the life of me! grrr.....

For that matter how about we cap how much actors and athletes can make and put that extra money toward building homes for low income families and the homeless.

I am planning on starting to go to an elderly home with a group of people and perform community service. We plan to read to them. I thought we should perhaps read shorter pieces, like short stories and poems, and avoid depressing subject matter. My friend suggested that we also do projects with them.
Any ideas for further activities or suggestions for short pieces to read?

do you think that animal charities recieve more donations than charities for children? if so why do you think that this is?

consider all of the programs,civic groups,etc all clammering to do this or that for the past 100 years yet what really has been accomplished-not much.
It certainly does nothing at the end of the day for you.

I am very interested in joining the peace corps after college because I feel like I need a break. Most of all, it is something that I have always wanted to do.
Everything is fine with me as far as being physically fit, mentally healthy.
I'm not sure what skill they'll want from me but I am ready to do whatever they want me to.
Only thing is that I have braces and I am afraid that that will stop me from going. Or if Peace Corps will cover for it when I am abroad.
Would that be a problem at all?

My finace and I are lucky enough to be taking a 10 day honeymoon to beautiful St. Lucia. However, I feel that this is quite indulgent and wish to at least volunteer or help out with a charity for a few days while I am there. Do you know of an organization that I could contact to arrange a few days of charity/volunteer work in St. Lucia? We are staying at the Sandals Grande, so if it is on that side of the island that would be best, I am not sure of our transportation options for long distances. Thanks!

I am considering becoming a doctor, but I do not want to work at a hospital or at a private practice. I want to work where I can help disadvantaged people who really need the help. I know that there are many volunteer organizations which I would LOVE to work for, but they do not pay their workers (such as DWB). I do not care how much money I make, just as long as I'm helping people with my skills. Does anyone know of any work I can find with this criteria? THANKS A LOT IN ADVANCE!!
