5 Volunteer Roles That High School Students Can Sign Up For in Any Town This New Year!
The New Year is an excellent time for any high school student to get involved in volunteering.
There are many ways to give back, no matter where you live or what your interests may be.
Here are five types of volunteer roles that high school students can apply for in any town at the start of a new year:
- Environmental preservation – High school students can help preserve their community’s natural resources by helping with park clean-ups, beach clean-ups and community garden restorations.
- Tutoring – If a student excels in math, science, English, or any other subject, they can get involved in tutoring programs run by local organizations or schools.
- Food banks – Donating time to a local food bank is a great way to help those who need it most within the community. High school students can do anything from stocking shelves to packing meals with the organization.
- Animal shelters – Animal shelters are always looking for volunteers willing to take out dogs on walks or just provide some extra love at their facilities.
- Senior citizen centers – Many senior centers offer activities such as movie nights and educational classes, which require volunteers to lead them and make sure everyone has a great experience.
Don’t stop with these ideas.
You can use this list as inspiration when thinking of ways you can participate in volunteer activities during the new year.
