On the search page of our VOLUNTEER HOUSTON Web site (www.volunteerhouston.org/volunteer/default.htm)
, you have the opportunity to search through more than 1600 volunteer
jobs to find something that's right for you. (And there's a "Youth Volunteering" item
built in as one of your search options.) We realize, however, that sometimes the search process can
be a little confusing and just plain frustrating, so we've gone through our information carefully and
hand-picked some of the best youth volunteer opportunities available right now and in the coming
months.
We've divided the opportunities into two groups: (1) Special Events -- opportunities
that involve your helping out just on a one-time or short-term basis, and (2) Ongoing Opportunities
-- those that you can get involved in on a regular basis for, say, an hour or more a week.
