Now Everyone Can Volunteer!
December 28, 2009
Ever get that urge to volunteer, to make a difference somewhere? I do. But if you’re anything like me, you don’t have a lot of extra time and even less extra money. Makes it hard to find meaningful ways to help give back to my community.
Well, I guess there are a lot of others out there like me, because I found a volunteer website created just for these busy times. It’s called The Extraordinaries.
If you can take a picture or tag an image, you can find the time to donate some volunteer work to the charity mission of your choice (from their list). None of the missions take more than two minutes to complete and each of them actually helps a cause! Choose from one of the missions listed, or if you have one of your own you can submit it to enlist help.
“For anyone with a jammed schedule, a new group called the Extraordinaries offers ways to devote even just a few minutes of free time to something worthwhile.”
Time Magazine, September, 2009
Now even the uber-busy can volunteer a little time. 🙂
This is a great tip for volunteer ideas. If you are looking to make a monetary year end gift to a deserving charity… try this: http://www.organize-more-stress-less.com/home/2009/12/16/looking-for-a-charity-deserving-of-your-year-end-gift.html
Thanks.
