I would work through your local volunteer center. Your volunteer center specializes in connecting you with meaningful community volunteer opportunities, and will be able to find one-time or short-term volunteer work for you. In addition, they will also be able to provide you with appropriate paperwork that you will require for community service hours.
You can find your volunteer center through one of these links:
http://www.handsonnetwork.org/our-network/
http://pointsoflight.org/centers/find_center.cfm
Typically, volunteer centers work with many of your local non-profit agencies, so they can offer a wide variety of different projects for you that can match up with your interests.
Good luck!

Theres a charity that will allow you to pay off your community service
hours my brother and a friend used them how it works is if you have 8
hours it equals $80.00 you can make a donation threw there website and
they send you out your paperwork, however I don't know if there hours have went up far as community service but the last time we check it was between $10.00 to $12.00 an hour we looked into this charity first before
making a donation to make sure they were legal and yes indeed they are a
501c3 nonprofit charity they are called Uplifting Kids they are a charity
my brother was soooo happy because it kept him from going to jail, the
courts was not trying to offer him an extention so he paid them off he
emailed and called them and someone got back to him right away he needed
this paper from the charity like asap and they charged him for the
overnight which between 40.00 and 45.00 dollars and an expedited charge of
$50.00 , they did a professional letterhead and sent it out to him, he was
toooo happy and he took the paper to the courts and everything was ok they
are also court approved all over the world I couldnt be more pleased with
this charity they saved my brothers and his friends freedom from going to
jail, they also have alot of other programs if you can't afford to pay the
hours off you can do a fundraise you can reach them by via email at
email@upliftingkids.org and also by phone at 1-855-581-9111 and there
website is www.upliftingkids.org call them they can help you and if you
need a professional letterhead urgent then let them know, I wouldn't try
theses other places online they are not legit this is the only one i could
find for my brother that is legit and not a scam and they followed threw
with a tracking number and we signed for the document so check them out
however you can't get no refunds if you decide not to go with them. They
are doing great things for people all over the world and kids. Check them
out they are even open late hours they help with court community service
and also school community service as well, you can also do a fundraise for
your hours they have alot of pretty cool programs they are great oh not to mention they are also on the Irs website as well to verify this charity.
Don't call them unless you are serious about paying off your hours right away because the Ceo is a very busy lady, but she is very nice and will do anything to help anyone in need of help they are open pretty late on the weekends and the weekdays.

i did 40 hours in middle school by going over to my mommy's workpace during the spring break. it was funn working wit my parent and see the other side of them when they are not at home. the easiest way to do a community service is to work wit yur friends or family. i also worked wit my teacher by helping her wit her school works and such. mayb yu could ask yur friends how they are accomplishing their service hours.

Try your local animal shelter. Most can give you plenty of hours, painting, cleaning, and grooming the dogs and cats.
It's also handy when the weather is bad, since they probably have indoor work.
The Staff of the shelter will be grateful for your help, and so will the dogs and cats!
Best to you.
