Are you looking for volunteer opportunities? Are you tired of working in the same place day after day and still not getting paid what you are worth? I know I am.


You have a lot to offer if you would like to work as a volunteer for people who are just trying to get out from under the burden of financial situation. Even if you are just a part-time volunteer, you can still make some good money. Here are some ideas that you may want to consider:

  • Help with school projects You can do good work for students who need extra money for school. These days many people have been laid off or forced to take on additional jobs due to the economy. They are having to pay their bills with less money each month than before and it is getting harder to make ends meet.

  • Clean up food pantries - It may sound crazy, but some food pantries are very dirty. There are people who are hungry and homeless because they do not have enough money to buy food. If you can offer to clean up these areas and get donations, you will be able to make some real money as a volunteer.

  • Pet sitting/walking This may sound weird, but you can do this as a pet sitting or walking business. You will have people who are in crisis and want to give a pet a home because they cannot afford another pet.

  • Medical aid Sometimes medical needs can become so urgent that you cannot help. If you have the skills and knowledge to help people in this situation, then you may be able to get a medical service job that offers to help people out of situations like this.

  • If you want to volunteer in a doctor's office, there are places that will hire you for a fee to help with patients that are in need of medical assistance. If you think you are qualified, then you may be able to help these patients receive the treatment that they need.

  • You can also volunteer as a tutor. A tutor is someone who tutors younger kids so that the older ones can get some much needed attention. If you have experience teaching younger children, you may be able to find a job in a local school that would hire you to help out with the classes for younger students. There are a lot of jobs out there that you can do just for your passion.

  • You can volunteer to work in an orphanage. There are people who need help with basic human needs, and the charity may be willing to hire you to do basic services for them.

  • If you have a special talent, then you can volunteer to work in a museum. Museums are always looking for people who can help keep their collections, because these are valuable objects that they have worked hard to get.

  • As you can see, there are a lot of opportunities to volunteer in your community. Whether you want to volunteer as a medical assistant or tutor, then you have the choice of helping others.

  • You can also volunteer with local government agencies. There are various agencies that need help to clean up and get things back to normal.

  • You can find local volunteer opportunities with your church or school. They may have different programs to volunteer in their area and you may be able to volunteer to help others.

  • Your employer's community may also have volunteer opportunities available. You might be able to work from home as a business coach.

  • You may want to consider going to your own community and starting your own community based volunteer. It may be something that you are interested in doing if you are passionate about something.

  • There are many different ways that you can volunteer, depending on what your passion is. It's important that you look around at your options and determine what you are passionate about and what you would enjoy. doing.
