For the USA: VolunteerMatch (http://www.volunteermatch.org), Idealist (http://www.idealist.org) and CraigsList (http://www.craigslist.com) all list volunteering opportunities with thousands of organizations. There's also this government sponsored site (http://volunteer.gov/gov/) which provides volunteer positions through USA federal land agencies like Fish & Wildlife, Forest Service, National Parks, etc. Also, contact your local volunteer center; you can find this via the Points of Light Foundation web site (http://www.pointsoflight.org/centers/).

I would suggest picking the type of organization that you feel you would like to support. There are all sorts. Common ones are animal shelters, domestic violence shelters, childrens shelters, hospitals, Red Cross...there are TONS. They need people to help not only with the hands on stuff, but also the smaller things like sending out brochures and letters or answering phones as a receptionist. If you contact your Dept of Social Services, they normally will have a huge list of organizations that you could contact. They would also be likely to know which ones recruit volunteers to do the type of work you are looking for.
