Where can you find community service opportunities?

<p>I live in California and in need of a community service event for my club. What website do you usually go on to find events? I try several websites but most of them need volunteers for extended period of time but my club only need to do an event for a day only. Any idea?</p>

<p>thanks for replying</p>

<p>I volunteer at my library but some of my friends volunteer on ambulences helping EMT's. A few others work at first aid squads and Habitat for Humanity. If you are not interested in any of that you can call local businesses or organizations and see if they need help. My friend did that last summer and wound up with an internship at a law firm which he loved.</p>

<p>I volunteer at the hospital</p>

<p>well what I mean is a project for the entire club not just myself. But thank anyway</p>

<p>For a one-day event (bigger): Try a breast cancer or other "awareness" walk. Usually they need volunteers to sign up others, and people to walk. </p>

<p>One day event (more local); try nursing homes/assisted living-most are more than happy to get volunteers for a few hours</p>

<p>You can always start your own volunteer project.
Food drive, some kind of awareness day, clean up a park,etc.</p>
