Volunteer Work - have done? going to do? need help?

[DGTL GRL]

What sort of volunteer work have you: Done? Are Doing? Need help with?

I've done volunteer work for humane societies in the past; but my most notable volunteer work was with as the Street Team Leader for Rock the Vote Columbus. (Non-profit/Non-partisan)

Was a fantastic time!

I also consider my Union County Election Judge ( har har POLLworker..not pole.. doesnt pay *THAT* well) volunteer work with a tiny bit of compensation. I take alot of pride in the democratic process.

Not into swaying people one way or the other politics-wise.. I just want them to take part in democracy by using their vote as their voice and be heard!

My mom is a POLLworker.

It makes for some funny stories about how inept people are at following directions - mainly the election officials. Then they get pissed when they're called out on it.

I painted gym lockers at the ymca...had to skip the bottom of one because of the condom and nasty jock strap though.

Cleared a trail for the girl scouts--Day of Caring...

I was actually looking for some good community service things to work on.

I really like helping people and I haven't been doing enough lately. I know this is kinda silly but I grow my hair out ridiculously long then chop it off and give it to locks of love... and I've lead a project team in honduras at an orphanage for kids with HIV/AIDS. Things like that, you walk away feeling like they gave you more than you gave them.

Anyway, I'm an alumni rep for a group at OSU called Engineers for Community Service (ECOS), and we're always looking for good projects... if anyone has any good ideas, let me know!!

As a member of the Knights of Columbus i am always involved in community service or volunteer work of some kind... what would interest you most? working with kids? with the developmentally handicapped? homeless?

more seriously, i love the Adopt a family for christmas deal. We did this at work and the family actually comes and picks up the stuff. You get a feeling of satisfaction knowing that it actually went somewhere and not some Goodwill employees pocket or a gubment employees pocket..

I volunteer with a cat rescue in Northfield.

I help do their PR and marketing, plus I clean and do adoptions every now and then.

She does a great job too.

I once volunteered to show my junk to a photographer taking pix of my train.

Didn't know that counted. Sweet. In that case, I give semen to the wife all the time.
