Volunteer work to a non profit community oriented service?
I did a traffic violation/beating the red light and I need to do a volunteer work. I live in la mesa, california. Do you have any ideas where I could do this. I am a nursing student too. It would be nice if the volunteer work is related to health, but if not its okay. THANKS FOR HELPING ME.

try asking the local police where to volunteer or try looking in your local phone book...

at a church or synagogue

Try the meals on wheels in the phone book - it may be under not for proft or non-profit or social service agencies.

do research on the internet to see if there is a domestic violence shelter for battered women and their children. I volunteered at a place like this once and it opened up my eyes!!! It went by so fast and I learned so much about psychology. Good Luck!!!

Go to www.volunteermatch.org, enter La Mesa, and you will find many up to date opportunities. Hope the volunteer work continues even after your penalty hours are complete!

Volunteer San Diego is your local volunteer center. They can help connect you with all sorts of projects. http://www.volunteersandiego.org They have a nice variety of projects that are very convenient for people with standard work schedules, with a lot of stuff on evenings and weekends. You can even filter the projects on the calendar for just the East County stuff. Good luck!

Look up anything you can think of---Use your imagination. Abuse shelters, SPCAs, homeless shelters, hospitals, historical societies, nonprofit groups. Check the phone book and the internet for any of these items near you. Perhaps you could ask at local offices and organizations if they know of any nonprofit groups---Often, they'll have some suggestions you hadn't thought of. I work for a local nonprofit museum, and we take community service workers. Often, they don't think of us, but when they do, we're glad to have the help.
