Yes! Volunteering is great. You meet really good people doing it. Because people who volunteer tend to be people with big hearts, of course.

- sthreet 12y agoHaving done a small amount of required volunteering for school I would disagree. Of course, I live in the middle of nowhere, and it was mostly my classmates volunteering with me who are also required to volunteer for so many hours.
- mooreds 12y agoI think the volunteering experience is, like so many other things, dependent on who else is participating as well as what you are doing. I hope you explore/are able to explore other opportunities in the future that resonate more profoundly with you.
- sthreet 12y agoMaybe. I lost my signed sheet. So I have to do like 20 hours again. You wouldn't happen to know a good place to find things to volunteer for in general?
- JohnBooty 12y agoMy wife's charity organization has gotten some new members by publicizing their events on Meetup.com! I haven't used it but in general that seems like a good place to find things to do. If not, try your local government or church, or just see if big-name charities or service organizations have any groups in your area.
- JohnBooty 12y ago> required volunteering So, uh, not volunteering, then? :) I know what you mean; my school had that too. It's compulsory but you at least get to pick where you work, right? Anyway, yeah. I'm talking about actual volunteer work. The kind where you volunteer.
- sthreet 12y agoWell, ya, it isn't really volunteering. And there are so few places I know to work that I really don't get to pick where I work, it is just whatever one I find I do.
