I would suggest that you contact your local volunteer center. They specialize in connecting you with volunteer opportunities in your area.
http://www.handsonnetwork.org/our-network/
http://www.pointsoflight.org/centers/centerlist.cfm?State=NY
http://www.nycares.org
This is your closest volunteer center:

Volunteer centers offer pre-screened volunteer opportunities, and can match you to various one-time, short-term, or long term projects based upon your interests.
Good luck!

check out www.idealist.org
Remember to figure out what you love to do, and what gifts/talents you have to offer--you can do what you enjoy and serve. Also, perhaps get a job. Good luck, and congratulations on wanting to serve!
