So..
Okay, well I haven't posted anything on here for a few days now but I have been trying to search for some links that may relate to my topic of volunteering. It seems like an easy, yet hard topic to focus on. If you search on Google, a lot of the results that you get are just different volunteer oppurtunites, which are a plus - but I still feel like I need that main question to focus of and answer. Except, that's the hard part about all of this, I can't think of one, therefore, it's hard to think of a good search term to look up information. A few of the different volunteer ideas that I've thought about doing are, 1. volunteer at Animal Friends in the Strip District and help out with the animals there, 2. volunteer at a nursing home/hospice around where I live, 3. volunteer at Children's Hospital (I also have a cousin who volunteers there), 4. and maybe more volunteer work with R.E.I and Venture Outdoors, 5. also in April I'll be going to Costa Rica with City High so that'll be a big volunteer opportunity for me. So overall, I really just need to wait until Wednesday when I finally have my talk with a teacher and get more of a main focus, and then maybe this all will become a little easier.

Volunteering is a central theme, but not a central enough topic for your project. Not just yet.
ReplyDeleteWhat group of people or animals are you most interested in volunteering with/for? Why?
What type of volunteer work are you interested in doing? What type of volunteer work are you capable of performing?
What volunteer opportunities are available to you, as a high school junior?
