Any suggestions on local organizations that need volunteers?

Thanks for your ideas.

If by local you mean NYC, then I recommend http://nycares.org , if you mean FG/CH then hopefully someone else can help out... Although you _may_ be able to find things in your neighborhood through nycares.

Hey, I'm on the board of a foundation that is looking to open a performing arts charter school somewhere in central brooklyn. If that's the kind of thing that floats your boat, PM me. We are looking for people to help out.

I can lead you to some opportunities to volunteer working with international students and US high school students wanting to go abroad as exchange students. If this is something that would interest you, send me a message.
