Registering to volunteer is what converts good intentions to a commitment
Register to volunteer.
Being a volunteer in the community is rewarding and beneficial for everyone. But registering to volunteer is what converts good intentions to a commitment. Pledge yourself, and then don't disappoint. You can sign up to volunteer for an event, to help a new American learn English, for a campaign or to pick up trash in a vacant lot. There are opportunities to volunteer all around you in schools, playgrounds, libraries, food banks, arts organizations, health clinics, community gardens, animal shelters, immigrant services centers, Boys and Girls Clubs, mentoring groups, public radio stations, and many more.
Take out that list of issues you created in Challenge #4 and then go to Serve.gov, Hands On Network, or your local United Way to find volunteer opportunities to fit your interests and skills. Let us know what you sign up to do!
