Community Service

I have to do a few hours of community service to get credit for a class I'm taking. The local hospitals aren't exactly places I would want to volunteer at, the nearest VA hospital is more than an hour away, and I'm terrible with little kids. Anyone have any ideas?

Look for police events, if there's events for a cop that was killed in your area, ask if you can do your part in helping them with setting up tents or something.

If you have a local fairground they are always in need of help and usually have a volunteer program. Because fairgrounds host all sorts of events throughout the year, the work usually turns out to be fun.

Most fairgrounds are government owned, with their mission being to teach agriculture, promote commerce and provide entertainment for the community, so they should meet the criteria for community service.

Homeless shelters and food banks are good places to look.

Animal Shelters usually need help.
