I have a large group (20 teenagers) who belong to a service club for at-risk youth. We go out into the community every 4 weeks to serve those who are less fortunate than we. We would like to find an opportunity to work in our local area. Can you help?

The employees of our small business want to volunteer together once a year. We have a hard time finding an organization that can accommodate our group of 10-15 people. How do we find a volunteer opportunity suitable for our group?

I think you can go to Saint Luke's Hospital or Oakland's Children's Hospital. You should look to see if you can.

Hi,
My organization at school is looking for a volunteer opportunity for 10+ people. Is there any way I can filter my search, so I only see opportunities for groups?

Thanks for your interest in volunteering!
You can refer to the previous posts above how you can search for volunteer opportunities.
You can also find group opportunities by choosing the "great for groups" category!

I'm an elementary teacher looking for volunteer activities suitable for 8-11 year olds. Now, we can't travel to different countries or host another child or afford to donate...there should be many more areas where we can get school children involved. After searching for quite sometime, I finally found a site where we can improve an area of our community and send results to an organization via e-mail.

How do I find a volunteer opportunity at a non-profitable organization for a teen?
I have to do 3 service hours for my human communications class in college, but in most places you have to be 18 to volunteer, and I don't meet that requirement since I'm 17 right now.

I'm a school counselor an a career and technology center for high school students. I would like for our students to learn about volunteer opportunities for them and the many benefits from becoming a volunteer. I created a "corporate" account, but while completing the application I have realized that is more for organizations looking for volunteers. How can I look for volunteer matches for our students?

Is there a need for a 15-year old volunteer to help with activities for Spanish-speaking children during the summer? My daughter would like to help as a volunteer and improve her language skills. She is good with kids and athletic, so she might help with a camp or other sports activity. She could also help with tutoring children, but speaks only beginner (one year of high school) Spanish.
