Hospitals, go to front desk and ask about volunteering, also food banks, nursing homes, tutoring school kids, helping out around the church with chores. Good Luck and God Bless YOU!

It really depends on what you want to do. My daughter wanted to work at the animal shelter and she just went and talked to the people there. They were tickled to have a volunteer and signed her up immediately. That is really the best way...go to the place where you want to volunteer, such as Good Will, Salvation Army, the local Christian Ministry, the hospital looking for candy stripers, or the Red Cross.

There are several sites...
www.volunteermatch.org
www.1800volunteer.org
www.idealist.org
call up your local united way - many of them have volunteer centers.
Your local American Cancer Society will have opportunities - www.cancer.org or www.relayforlife.org
Hope these help!

Salvation Army or wherever you can help feed the homeless. Church is an excellent place to ask.

Go to your local food pantry and I promise they can give you something to do.
