Volunteering oportunities for an Ohio girl to get out and help others :)?
I would like to volunteer abroad somewhere, or travel across the country to volunteer for something. I live in Ohio, and my bf of 5 years broke things off with me, and a month later, I got laid off from my job, and I have summer classes scheduled, but I have the seconds session, which is 3 weeks off, and with no job, no bf, friends are usually busy, idk what to do with my time. that will be in mid June when that time is off for me. But I am looking for some reliable sites to look into that might be able to guide me into what I can do…I was thinking that if maybe there was something environmental I could do here in the us, or habitat for humanity or something, but I can’t seem to find much. Or travel to like, jamica or something to help in the schools or somthing. I don’t want to travel by myself, I’d rather be in a group or soemthing, but I just don’t know! Help or ideas would be wonderful.
thanks

Looks like you are trying to escape instead of wanting to volunteer. Look around your community; there is need everywhere. If you put someone else first, you’ll soon forget about your issues. Call 211; they are the experts in the nonprofits in your area. Hope this helps.
