Talk about procrastination........

Volunteer Match will match opportunities with individuals, just punch in your zip code and it will show what opportunities are available (I put in the zip code for the police department and got 116 matches):

Theres a charity that will allow you to pay off your community servicehours my brother and a friend used them how it works is if you have 8hours it equals $80.00 you can make a donation threw there website andthey 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 beforemaking a donation to make sure they were legal and yes indeed they are a501c3 nonprofit charity they are called Uplifting Kids they are a charitymy brother was soooo happy because it kept him from going to jail, thecourts was not trying to offer him an extention so he paid them off heemailed and called them and someone got back to him right away he neededthis paper from the charity like asap and they charged him for theovernight 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 wastoooo happy and he took the paper to the courts and everything was ok theyare also court approved all over the world I couldnt be more pleased withthis charity they saved my brothers and his friends freedom from going tojail, they also have alot of other programs if you can't afford to pay thehours off you can do a fundraise you can reach them by via email [e-mail] and also by phone at 1-855-581-9111 and therewebsite is www.upliftingkids.org call them they can help you and if youneed a professional letterhead urgent then let them know, I wouldn't trytheses other places online they are not legit this is the only one i couldfind for my brother that is legit and not a scam and they followed threwwith a tracking number and we signed for the document so check them outhowever you can't get no refunds if you decide not to go with them. Theyare doing great things for people all over the world and kids. Check themout they are even open late hours they help with court community serviceand also school community service as well, you can also do a fundraise foryour 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.

Answer 3

I don't know what all is permitted for your community service hours, but you could volunteer at a hospital, retirement or nursing home, at a local school or Head Start, the Salvation Army, a soup kitchen, or at helping hands ministries.

Answer 4

You can contact your local Salvation Army, Churches, librairies, Hospitals, Nursing Homes, Schools, Friends and even Family Members. Find out about donating time with helping to sort out clothes, etc..read to children or even the Elderly. With nicer weather clean up Parks, Church grounds, School grounds, etc..help out Children that have no family..spend time helping Elderly people or disabled people. Help keep adopted road sides clean. Help out at a Farm or a Zoo if you have any near by. You can even go to a VFW or something of that nature see what you could do to help out. Spend time Painting, planting flowers, raking up or any kind of services that help make someones property beatified! There is so much that you can do and hey you may even find that by helping others and all those around you, you will feel better about your self for spending your time devoted to all of those around you and you will shedding a Positive light on Treating others as though you would like to be treated!!!!!!!

Answer 5

Call a food bank & try to get the time. Otherwise, you are in BIG trouble. Courts & preobation officers are not suggesting community service - it was an order.

Answer 6

well first off it's your own fault you're in this mess. you obviously did something irresponisble to get court ordered community service, and then you just prove the judge right by not doing it. I don't know what you could do but I hope you've learned your lesson.

Answer 7

oh wow you better get started NOW. call a homeless shelter or something and ask if you can volunteer to help. anything that helps an organization that doesnt get paid is considered community service.. good luck and hope u get your hours.. :)

Answer 8

go in front of the judge to get an extention 12 hours sounds like a lot but you can do !!!!

Answer 9

I suggest you get in touch with a local library or other organization that needs constant volunteer help.

Answer 10

Um..... just ask people if they need help sweeping sidewalks/painting/tending plants etc. I'm not sure what there is to do. You can go around and pick up garbage on the sides of roads.
