Don't Know Where to Volunteer? Make Something Up!

From Holly Ashworth, About.com Guide   October 27, 2009

If you've got community service hours you need to fill for school, it can be hard to know where to begin.

Here's some inspiration: for their annual Teens Make a Difference Day, about 2,500 Texans spent an afternoon doing everything from cleaning to gardening to visiting with senior citizens, then they topped it all off with a pizza party.

How about throwing your own Make a Difference Day with your friends? Call your local City Hall and see what projects they need help with, then divvy them up among your pals. And of course, when the day is done, throw yourselves a pizza party.

If that's not your cup of tea, check out this list of other fun ways to fill your volunteer hours that you might not have considered.
