I feel like time is running out. I'm happy, but feel like I should be doing something more impactful. Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy. I just want to do something to make a difference.
Currently, I stay home and raise my young children. I plan to homeschool them. My family is very important to me and I wouldn't want a 40 hour workweek. I love researching things and reading and travel. I have an MBA, though I've never used it. Before kids, I worked in retail management, but hated it and wasn't good at it. I would really like to impact kids lives with my time, but I don't know where to start. I feel such compassion for kids who aren't getting all they need. Later, when our children are a little older, we plan to have foster children.
I have lots of time, love to talk to people, a computer, a car, but not alot of money. Any ideas??? I"m looking for a need I can fill.

Go back to your kids. Do the basics do they know everything.I hope you are home schooling the now. They may be young but they need to heat abc,s and123s over and over again. Buy your kids anything you can afford with learning skills. They deserve it.do they know all their colors are they potty trained do they know allot of nursery rhymes. Do you read books to them daily? There is so much that needs to be done at home I do not know why you are looking to help someone else at this time. I hope you understand I do feel you and your kids deserve the best and the most.

Go to a place where you know that what ever you can give to them makes a different to their lives.Like sharing some little blessings you have,you know little things mean a lot. Go to an orphanage or country side share some foods and clothing, believe me it means a lot. Little things become big thing if it comes from the heart.

Take a vocational aptitude test. I did and realized that something I was doing years ago was something I should have been doing all along. Good luck!
