<p>What are some good ways to find volunteer work to do during a high school summer? Also, what are some options for volunteer work during the summer that will look good on college applications?</p>
<p>I don’t know where are you but the best way is go to your local community center, libraries and ask for it. The jobs may vary from playing with kids, teaching Spanish kids English and math ( this is what I’m doing ) to cleaning local parks, planting trees. Those clubs always need people, and they are extremely friendly.</p>
<p>Food banks and food shelves always need help. Sometimes libraries and hospitals get “filled up” for their volunteer slots (or have training you might have already missed for the summer). But you can check those out. Is there Habitat for Humanity in your area? Our local newspaper also has a regular feature in the Sunday paper where they list volunteer opportunities, so you could see if your paper has that.</p>
