Web sites for volunteering

[Guest tmoning]

Saw this tidbit in Janet Groene's Full-Timer's Primer column in the July 2008 issue of Family Motor Coaching magazine:

Many full-timers volunteer at local, state or national parks throughout the United States, but volunteering opportunities are available in other nations as well. If you seek new horizons, go to www.travel-peopleandplaces.co.uk. Based in England, the organization has short-term volunteer opportunities overseas. Also see www.charityguide.org for lists of North American volunteer vacation projects you can travel to by motorhome.

One of the best places to find volunteer opportunities is Volunteer.gov. Also if you like adventure contact your local Red Cross Disaster Services director. You may also want to check out your local elderly services.
