One of the kids I counsel has community service. The problem is, we are currently under-staffed and it is difficult to get this individual out a soup kitchen or animal shelter to volunteer. Are there things that this kid could do that would count as community service, without leaving the facility? I was thinking something along the lines of sending Christmas cards to the troops, or organizing a canned food drive among the staff, etc.

I'd say that would be one you need to address to the courts and not the general populace. The courts may have regs for what counts and what doesn't that are different than what we think would count.

I believe the whole idea of community service is to provide service in the community where the crime was committed. The courts or the probation department will be able to help you with this issue.
