If I figured out how to donate a few hours of my time each week or every couple of weeks....what could I do that won't piss me off?

I helped idiots with taxes a while ago...that was unrewarding....gold toofed', puffy jacket drunks bitching about not getting enough free gov't $ back....

I thought somehow taking a lonely person (as long as they have $ for me in their Will) to the mall / shopping would be somewhat rewarding..... (as long as they don't smell).....

seriously.... what is a somewhat rewarding thing to do?

 

Not sure about "volenteering" but I did some volunteering work at the Special Olympics in high school. That was fun and rewarding for me.

 

I volunteer my time at the local animal shelter plus I am a foster parent for kittens/cats until their adoption

 

i also enjoyed helping shelter animals, but there were so many that it became oerwhelming. wished i could have helped them all.

 

I work sorting food at the food bank from time-to-time. I also donate my time and expertise to some band programs in the area.

 

many years ago (when i had free time), i used to do meals-on-wheels.

and every single person appreciated it A LOT....no one was ungrateful.

 

When I was in college I use to go and help troubled middle school kids with math.

Last week I just heard about a clinic that does free checkups and prescriptions for people who don't have health insurance every other sunday which I think is a great idea considering how crap healthcare is here for people without a job and the elderly. I called them to help volunteer in any way i can.

 

I volunteered at the local first aid squad and eventually became an EMT. Although, now at school I dont have time for it anymore, I found it very rewarding to help people in need.

I would also volunteer as a firefighter but again, time is limited now

 

i donate blood... 0+

i'd like to volunteer but i haven't the slightest clue where to look. there should be a volunteer meet. that would bring some recognition and slack to the s2000. =)

 

I should be getting my 7 gallon paper soon....i like giving blood.
